We've bought many plants/trees from the vendors over the past 20 years....never had a problem. You're always at risk buying one of the trees that promises yuuuuuge fruit.......you might get the fruit, but it probably won't be as delicious as the more native kinds.
Next year, January-ish, don't miss the agricultural fair at Khonkaen University. It's usually toward the end of the month and offers many times the variety offered in Udon.
If you buy at the Udon fair, don't be afraid to haggle for a lower price....especially if you're buying quantities.
If it weren't for these "subthread" posts the thread would be on page 3 or 4 and nobody would see it. At least this way it keeps getting bumped back to the top above all the advertiser threads and people are more likely to see it, visit it, and look at the relevant info.
