Yeah, I have, several times. My experience with him is positive. Most of the seeds have come up, and they were as advertised. He ships them out in a timely fashion, too. I have purchased on at least 3 different occasions from him, in 3 different years. Approximately 30 different species seeds in all.

I realize this might not help you anymore, since you asked about him in April. But maybe it helps someone else.

QUINTA DOS OURIQUES Order # 10-06829-80648 Ebay ID # 353411698620 and 353411698633.

E. pulverulenta purchase was for 20 seeds, but received 11 little specks (seeds) instead of 20. Sellers usually even add a couple extra, but to receive half the seeds it's a bit unusual. My plans were to germinate at least 10-15 trees from them.

Their 
listing says VERY VERY RARE (E. pulverulenta), but looking at RapePalmSeeds website they are even selling bags with 100,000 seeds, so not so rare as it seems.

I wonder why were 11 (if those specks are all seeds) were sent instead of 20?

Photos of the bags received with seeds attached.
