Default Selling Seed (was Ebay)

Are there any regulations about selling seeds over and above anything
else?


I've sold seed on ebay, particularly for large pumpkins. As long as you're
clear about what it is you're selling, and for things like pumpkins you have
to take into account potential cross-fertilisation so the baby may not
resemble the parent! But if there were regulations, I think ebay would have
put a stop to it!
