Now the law is less severe but Kokopelli wasted a lot of time and money going to court.
I wouldn't dream of buying seeds from that store, besides identifying the variety of tomatoes they sell is pretty difficult. I suggest you shop somewhere else !
Hi Loulac,

thank you for your reply but I dod't think you read my post carefully. I'm not enthusiastic about Tomatobomo at all!
I don't know if I'm being scammed, but for sure I'm not getting any information from them which from my point of view is irritating. If you are a vendor and especially if you sell on-line and with the goal of reaching also non-French customers, Customer Service is of vital importance. If you don't answer to emails, you have permanent work in progress on your website and you don’ t have anybody of your staff able to speak some English when you get phone calls from international customers, then you’re simply not doing a good job.
The story about the dispute with Kokopelli confirms my opinion.
I won’t buy from them again.
