HMmm, Interesting. There servers must be down. Or something else has gone wrong. Hopefully they are still in business.

Hi ynokrz,
Since you have just talked with Scott last week, would you please ask him why he has not responded to no less than four emails concerning my recent purchase of a 10" scope? He did not send what I had ordered and hasen't responded yet to any emails, including a PM here on CN.
See my reference four posts below.
Scott?

I think Ed means small vendors going out of business.

Have you tried calling him rather than emailing him? If his website is down, perhaps so is his email, or perhaps the emails got caught in spam filters, who knows.

Scott doesn't answer e-mails. This has been a recurring sore point with a number of people who have done or tried to do business with him in the past.
So, yes, try calling. I don't know if they have an 800 number, however.

I doubt it - it also says: Aunet Pty Ltd AUSTRALIA Scott's in Michigan.
I have no idea what's up with Anttlers.
