I think when it comes to hybrids, it is best to go with companies that are "professional". And that includes vendors like TGS, Johnny's and High Mowing (small companies).
While it is true that a 1 person mom-and-pop seed companies may be selling legit hybrid seed, I think your risk goes up when purchasing, particularly on Etsy or Ebay.
That said, I have a seed business that is by most all measures mom-and-pop, but I do sell legit hybrid seed. So, there are exceptions to every rule.
