variegated cherokee purple?

[phantom_white]

I work at a local nursery, and while going through the new plants that came in while was off work I came across a Cherokee Purple plant with variegated leaves on it. Besides the off coloration, it was identical in every way to the other CP plants. One of the "Master Gardner's" that works there said something was wrong with it (thus the cream colored leaves) and she wouldn't buy it. I like oddities, so I saved it back and plan on planting it along with my other tomatoes when it warms up. Has anyone else had trouble with tomatoes that had variegated leaves?
