Hi,

This might be too simplistic - but you could just ask them  :)

I reckon it's 12-15 on average when I buy them....  :-\

0.5kg packs have between 6-8 in them and the kilo packs have between 12 and 16 depending on variety as saddad says.

10 would be plenty so thanks for your help!  :-*

it actually tells you on his "potato Page".

"The majority are sized between 35mm and 55 mm in diameter. A few varieties, mainly long, narrow salads, start at 30mm. A few in short supply or round in shape may go up to 60mm. Our calculations show that the "average" net contains 13 tubers/ kg but this can be as low as 8 or as high as 20. More in the case of Mimi."
