Just proves people will sell/buy anything on ebay. Can't believe anybody was silly enough to buy them they're unlikely to grow.

I can understand selling the seeds but plants like that shame to con new gardeners :'(
For sure you can sell anything on ebay

yes it is a shame - they should come with a warning that they won't survive till the spring - also aren't they very little plants, just the seed leaves, no real growth.  A real rip-off.

She has the squash seeds for sale now... still a bad buy though... I saved seed and gave them away this year and felt v guilty about it... The seeds i grew on didnt give good fruit, fairly tasteless and non uniform in shape so i guess i save F1 seeds...  So if she is saving her own seeds then the chances of them crossing are quite high.
