I've known about Ventmarin for many years and have given the link here and other places.

I have it translated right off Google as well although a few basic words in French really are almost adequate for getting the gist of the blurbs.

It's pretty darn good for tracing the backgrounds of some tomato varieties that aren't explained otherwise.

And correct, no seeds are sold, same as with Jeff Nekola's site, no seeds sold.

But since there are probably at least 3-4,000 varieties now available commercially in the US, plus add on the several thousand more available to SSE members thru the Yearbook, I would think that anyone could be pleased with the varieties now available in terms of variety selection.
