Classic scam time.
There are a lot of trusted sellers here and on eBay and this person is not legit.
First off, they are listing items as dwarf and as named varieties when they are selling seedlings. Their fruit pictures are taken from the web.
Buyer beware.
No one would tell the difference for years until it fruits.

Thank you both so much. I hope more of the finger lime varieties become readily available in future. I'd even take branches for grafting at this point.

There must be one of us in Florida Keys where the seller says is their location. If I lived nearby I'd try to make a visit just to see how they are doing business.
Back in the '60's when I was a kid I got ripped off ordering stuff from comic books with my 'hard earned' money. I got taken by the "sea monkeys" (brine shrimp eggs) then the "monster that grows green hair" (piece of cardboard with chia seeds glued on). So, at a very early age developed a distaste for scammers.
