Finding a curly ponytail palm?

Hi,
I recently posted to find the ID of the pictured plant, and found out it was a ponytail palm. However, the posted plant does not belong to me, it's in my office.

I'd like to find one, but all the ponytail palms I've seen for sale are straight, or lopped off on top. I don't care for the bushy mess it makes on top when it's cut off, and I love the cascading look of this unadulterated one?

Where can I find one that is curly AND not chopped at the top, short of trying to steal the one from the lobby of my building?

The curly ones are among my favorites. I keep my eyes open for them at Wally World...I've found/bought a couple there. That said, they're not impossible to find locally, which is probably the most cost efficient way short of ordering one online.
