In Canada there are no Ebay orchid sellers. I don't know why. There is the odd seller is other countries but that's pretty risky.

Probably because shipping in this country is so horribly expensive, and also because 5/12 months of the year, it's too cold to ship live plants. Doesn't stop me from drooling over the listings on ebay.com!
Edit: just noticed you are one of the lucky chosen Canadians on Vancouver island, zone 9. Greetings from zone 3 /cries in the corner...under 10 blankets and a space heater..

I've ordered Oncidiums from them and they sent really nice healthy plants.

I recently bought a C. Cherry Song 'Pink' from them. Very healthy plant and well packed, can't wait until it blooms. I will buy from them again I'm sure.

Kawamoto is always my first stop at every show. I can't leave without a couple new plants. They are so helpful and are always willing to give lots of culture advice to new growers.

After not having so much luck with an orchid from ebay, it's alive, but barely! I ordered from Kawamoto and what I received was AWESOME! Very good seller and quick shipping too!

I too have had a great experience with Kawamoto. I was nervous about buying on eBay, but saw everyone here had only good things to say, so i went ahead. Glad I did. I got a great Blc. Binosa (4N) that hasn't missed a beat. It's growing happily.

I cannot wait to finish my training and try and get a job on the island. It is sunny outside, but -20C. That's -4F.

If you buy a few plants(BIN) from Kawamoto, say 4 plants....do you pay full price listed? Each plant has shipping cost included and I was wondering if shipping cost is less when they mail them together.

I bought three plants and they shipped together in one order for free.
