I have noticed that Hobby-Space is no longer shipping products. Their e-mail address is no longer active, either. Does anyone know what is going on?

I placed an order with them back in December and everything was fine! They might have decided to stop shipping internationally since then, who knows!

I hope it's not that...

Cheers,

Christian

I've just typed www.hobby-space.com in Google's Chrome with success.

I also noted that (I think) they seems to have changed their email address: [email protected]

I have their business card here and here's what I read:

[email protected]
[email protected]

Skype: hobby-space

Paypal account: [email protected]

Website: www.hobby-space.com

I sincerely hope all this might help someone. Again, I am in no way connected to them. Just trying to help.

It may have been due to the Chinese New Year or the fact that they finished a site update. Everything, but the old e-mail is working correctly(much to my relief).
