Hi Joe
Except for the persaon who was selling hostas while invoking her
mother's established nursery name I have always thought I was treated ok
buying plants although I seldom buy them from the various auctions. I do
buy computer parts and books, and camera paraphernalia by the truckload
with the auctions and I don't feel this is risky behavior. Plus no one
ever tells you if they consider an established nursery whether online or
from a catalog a good place to deal with but it is there for all to see
with most auctions.
