I have received a number of plants from Harvey's last month, all good quality as far as my limited experience tells me.  I could have done with this thread back then; I did a bit of browsing and going through old threads to find out about 'dorasnowdrop',but only found 1 mention and  then found out they are the same as Harvey's and interestingly found that some items were cheaper on ebay than in the web shop and vice versa and that unavailable items were available in one or the other. I emailed them and after one initial answer never heard back from them; nearly gave up but then picked up the phone and had an excellent 'customer experience'. They did not get round to answering the emails because it had been too busy- a small specialist nursery could have that problem I suppose.  Got what I liked for lowest price from either list, combined postage, and some that were 'unavailable'. So without questioning the reasoning behind the rationale of multiple ebay accounts and a web shop, the service I received was, in the end, good.

Harvey's prices are dependent on the bulb - you may find others' are cheaper, but that's the case if you shop around for any variety online, unless it's for a stratospherically-priced one.  I bought 'Rosemary Burnham' from them for 1/5 (yes, one fifth) what I saw it going for at another nursery. So I don't think you can generalise.  His eBay prices are very competitive.

Hi Brian,
   Following your intriguing posts yesterday on the ''Fake'' thread.... I don't see you listed here!  Were your sales also on Ebay?
   Either way..... Perhaps this list (Initial post from Maggi) needs updating?
   Perhaps it should be a Sticky Topic??

Once in a blue moon I sell on eBay under the name "milkflower", not often enough to have gained any sort of review on the forum AFAIK.  I have a snowdrop on offer at the moment in collaboration with forumist Tim Ingram; one for which I persuaded Tim to let me choose an appropriate name: http://ebay.us/c4MFIj .  It's doing quite well so far but I think it deserves to because Tim has produced a really pretty and distinctive snowdrop.
Almost in Scotland.
