Title: Seeds-by-Size

Can anyone rcommend this seed supplier? They have a chilli I can't find anywhere else. They're in the wiki list so I guess someone here has used them before, but I'm feeling a bit antsy about using untried websites after reading about the dastardly seedfest.

I've often wanted to order, but their medieval ordering system has me beat :'(

Yes, I've used them and they were fine.  The website is a bit odd, though, when it comes to working out how much to pay.

Also you have to use the "Notes" section of Paypal to list your order.  They do suggest that you follow up with an email, which is what I did.

I used the e-mail route as well just to make sure I worked it out right - it's pretty complicated!

They confirmed promptly and the right seeds were delivered shortly thereafter.

BTW I was after the horrendously expensive Albertos Locuto chilli, which is the one you want?

Thanks, I'll give it a go with email back-up!

Greek Golden Pepperoncini - they're the yellow/green pickled ones that are used in salads/kebabs, not very hot but tasty.

I've been daunted by their ordering system myself. Looks a bit maths complicated to me!  :-\ As I am not the most numerate I've left it alone. Lots of interesting stuff on there tho...

I order bulk lots from that site sometimes.

It is quite confusing but is good for bulk.

If there is some seeds someone wants, I can get
a bulk lot and sell on however many they need.

Hope this helps
