I've had good luck with https://www.sandiaseed.com/ too
+1 for Hippy Seed Company They are a little more expensive than some other vendors, but their seeds always seem to grow true for me.
I also recommend White Hot Peppers and Texas Hot Peppers as long as you are OK with open-pollinated seeds and don't mind getting the occasional surprise cross.
If you are interested in more colorful and ornamental varieties, then Matt's Peppers seems to focus more on those. I have seen variations in the seeds I have grown from him, so I would assume that his seeds are likely open-pollinated as well.

Some nice choices @. https://www.rareseeds.com/
The already mentioned rareseeds (Baker's Creek) has been great for me! No mislabeled seeds and good germination rates.
Fair warning they are owned and ran by kind of not great people without getting too into it, but if that doesn't bother you they have good product.

Totally Tomatoes, Tomato Growers Supply, Chile Pepper Institute, and Seed Savers Exchange are my favorites.

Agree with Baker Creek (www.rareseeds.com) being a good start. But have had good success with Sandia Seed, Seed Savers Ex, Bohica Pepper Hut and Totally tomatoes for sweet peppers and tomatoes for sure. Trying Refining Fire Chilis and Tyler Farms for the first time this coming season.
