Agree. In Heather's exchange, some of the packs included left over seeds I purchased from Heirloom Acres earlier this year - and I denoted the seed envelopes as coming from Heirloom Acres. If someone can use them, then great - and it's free advertising for Heirloom Acres.
True, I'll be getting "wanted" varieties in exchange but Heather has placed a packet limit to be exchanged. Regardless, I WANT to purchase seed from SSE and others - there's so many tomatoes and peppers I want to grow.
