Last year, I found an online source for "Red Creole" onions. Unfortunately, certain of its business practices I find a little off-putting. Although, I'll save seeds, there's the "meantime" before flowering. The only other online seed source I've found is requesting U$ 8.99 for 25 seeds; not for me, that. Can anybody offer any guidance to a US source for these seeds? Anybody hoarding seeds he'll part with (in return for cash, of course). I'm appreciative of any information but a link to "let me google that for you" simply will put you on the lifetime twit list as a self-identified butthead.

300 seeds for $2.00
Fast shipping from this one. It's down the road from where I live and garden.
Here are some more sources:

Thank you, thank you, thank you! The list is very much appreciated! I guess I shouldn't admit it, but Baker Creek are the folks I'd just as soon not continue to patronize. I hasten to point out, though, that my peculiarity definitely SHOULD NOT influence anyone else's decision: I am a notorious curmudgeon. I certainly cannot fault the selection, the quality or the service. Definitely shall follow up on the other leads!
Burpee sells them. Walmart sells Burpee seeds. Have you looked there?

No; I haven't been in a Walmart for years. My last experience with Wallyworld seeds was their private "BH&G" label. They were a straight ripoff. I drive by Walmart to buy my cheap Chinese crap from local merchants whenever possible or from competing chain stores. Thanks for the tip, though; I may ease into the garden shop end of the store and check it out.
