You've probably seen my list on my web site, so I won't post it here. All I will say is that each year the ones that I start/sell the most of are Cherokee Purple, Sungold, Black Cherry, Mexico Midget, Red Brandywine and Brandywine. What I find happens is that people develop their must have list, and it carries through. In general, large red indeterminates (Cuostralee, Aker's WV, Andrew Rahart, Neves) are also popular, as is German Johnson, being a local NC heirloom. There is an increased interest in dwarf/shorter growing varieties, such as New Big Dwarf and Lime Green Salad. This gives me hope that the results of the Dwarf project will also become fairly popular.
