Pictures and juicy descriptions, too! I don't know if I would worry about being too "exotic"--in essence, that's what has propelled the heirloom tomato movement. If people are accustomed to store-bought tomatoes, I assume it's simply because that's what's available.
There are a few vendors at our local farmer's market who sell seedlings in the spring. They're generally pretty spindly. This may seem obvious, but once you select your best varieties, grow the best looking seedling you can - make sure they're well-tended, disease free and stocky - I'd think they'd sell themselves.
