The rule is no posting sources for items that our vendors sell. None of our vendors here sell seeds. This kind of talk is allowed. We want people to have good information about where to obtain seeds if they choose to do so. Having said that, I have not heard anything about this company.

So our vendors are allowed to buy a near monopoly on source talk for certain items?
IE since we have a pipe vendor, we can no longer talk about other sources for pipes?

Good question. Let me get clarification. I may be wrong above.

OK, fair enough. I got a little paranoid because at the Shroomery, talking about Non-vendors is Not allowed at all. I guess it doesn't matter here, because there is no "sponsored" vendors, for seeds, of course.
And the Single Seeds.com site OP is talking about is actually called "The Single Seeds Centre", but their address is http://www.worldwide-marijuana-seeds.com/
(a little too on-the-nose for me, but that's there choice). They are based in the UK.
That site is the same place where I got my seeds from. And yes, they are a reputable source in my one experience with them. I payed for the most expensive shipping option, and it was totally worth it.
The Good:
-> Huge selection of strains from lots of reputable brand names.
-> Sells singles, (feminized and regular) and 10-per-pack for a good, decent price.
-> Well-designed website with easy navigation and great search engine.
-> Nice photos and descriptions of the strains.
The Bad:
-> Some of the single seeds are expensive.
-> Some of the strains/seed types are "unavailable" frequently.
-> The shipping is expensive (but for obvious reasons).
So, yeah, I love that website. So clean looking. Reminds me of Amsterdam (or how I see it in my mind).
I highly recommend!

As ~95% of our funding comes from advertising revenue, in conjunction with the fact that continued site development and increased use has resulted in higher expenses, our current policy is to disallow the discussion of third-party vendors selling the same products as existing vendors. While it is not something that I'm crazy about and that may be modified in the future, I do recognize the need to guarantee a viable source of income to keep these monster sites online complete with all of the added features and file hosting capability that our members have come to expect.
Just to give you an idea of the costs we face... Hosting runs up to $1000 every month and we are also planning to spend around $13,000 in backend hardware upgrades (not including the man-hours to implement the upgrades) in the immediate future, with a subsequent $4000 upgrade for the frontend planned within the next year or so.
The costs are real and the reality is that we need to protect our paying vendor's advertising privilege so that they will receive value from their sponsorship and ultimately keep us online!
