linkI have no intention of buying from this seller (besides the expense, I'm too much of a chicken to risk causing a kerfuffle with customs and having them decide to make an example of me. Plus I'm a little suspicios of any seller who ships from two separate locations) But I will point out that this guy, assuming he actually has most of the things he has listed, has some truly LEGENDARILY rare crop seeds (Gemsbok bean, Oyster Nut, Congo beans etc.) Someone who lives a little closer might want to take the risk.

I've purchased seed from her and had a good experience.

A bit expensive and/or semitropical for me

Never bought seeds from eBay and doubt I ever will. Never heard of that seller before, but I have bought seeds from tradeswindfruits.com before with good success. Looking there now there are some interesting watermelon and cold-hardy persimmon varieties.. ...still wondering where the best source for persimmon seeds are...

Persimmon seeds: IS there a good source for persimmon seeds? Any persimmons of which I'm aware have very spotty seed production.
There's a tree in my landlady's backyard that produces huge fuyu-shaped persimmons which are as inedible as hachiya until they soften; not obviously grafted, so seed-grown? I've no clue.

Was just wandering around there and it looks like THEY now carry Oyster Nut seeds as well! Keppels too (yes I know I could have gotten keppel seed from our malaysian member, but as with the oyster nuts, getting them here eliminates any risk of confiscation by customs). That also solves the issue of the split sources (with only the gemsbok seeds left on my want list from them, it doesn't matter if they have two warehouses. There's nothing to try and combine.) |

I think the postal and packaging charges from the seller on the link, in Portugal, is absolutely outrageous, there are several tomatoes list on the website that I would like but the postal charges are just too much.
I contacted the seller and asked them if the postal and packaging charges for items sent to the U.K. would be a lot less as normal post from there amounts to no more than about £1.50 in Uk money, but they would not change it even though it is proven that the cost is a lot less. it sounds s though they are real rip off merchants ?
