No experience with them since I don't live in Europe  ::). However, they certainly got many rare plants.

In Calabria sono poco forniti ed incompetenti a tal punto che i nomi botanici di alcune piante sui cartellini glieli ho corretti io! E se gli chiedo la cultivar di guava che hanno esposta, o la carambola o papaya loro mi dicono che sono quelle "normali" 

Fabio per adesso invece č assente, mi ha rinviato un appuntamento e non ha pių risposto  per  vedere quando lo trovo... Si vede che gli bastano i soldi che ha.

Anto, canarius look little expensive, but they work in rich area. You can easy look for smaller companies. They usually offer little smaller plants (easy to find on eBay or similar local sites such as the Allegro). Using this method You can save a lots of money. The cheapest shopping plants in Europe (even with shipping) you do in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Poland. Quality usually no way deviate from companies in Western Europe. It is just because we have lower wages (lower labor costs etc).

I bought from canarius twice, prices high and quality of plants questionable. Lot of pests and small plants with poorly developed roots.
The only company importing tropical fruit plants from Spain in big quantities and selling them in good prices I know in Czech Republic is this: http://www.pawpaw.cz , their plants are big and nice, but also a lot of pests, it looks like it is common for plants imported from Spain region.

Canarius:

really bad quality. I donīt want to speak about plant quality because I bought/payed for a plant and have got a unrooted cutting of bad quality. >:(

Never again.

I started purchase from them at 2014, at that period they offered nice plants with a good root growth. Now as they i suppose want make all the money they can at all cost, the offer week plants almost without roots and soil in the pots and without any refund policy (to islands). Not even mango's trees are surviving the trip.

Nevertheless they have great variety to offer, I just regret not purchasing more plants when they where at top shape.
