Both are great. For more vendors, try here

For any vendor, what matters most is your own experience with them.
Don't discount your instincts. If a deal sounds too good to be true, be
suspicious. But, if you think you might want to 'audition' a vendor,
buy a few plants. Don't go nuts and buy dozens, just a couple. Maybe
you want to select a few of the less expensive offerings. If they are
of good quality and you are satisfied with the service and price, then
you have greater confidence that a more extensive (or expensive) order
will go smoothly.

One of the great joys of the internet is that there is such a wide
variety of orchid plants and vendors to choose from. By all means
purchase (frequently! *grin*) from your favorite vendor, but don't
forget to experiment a bit, you may find new favorite sources.

And use your credit card. There are a lot of protections built into the
system that give you power as a consumer. If something goes horribly
wrong, you can always dispute a charge.
