    Question The mystery of the lost websites



    For some reason 2 kilt shop webpages have disappeared in the last several days/weeks. Both Kiltmart & Frugel Corner are missing from the web.

    Anyone have any news or explaination?

    GoDaddy had some kind of error this week that supposedly shut down a lot of small business websites. Maybe this could be the case for one of these?

    Note on The Frugal Corner website:

    "We had some storms (Tornado next town over) pass through the area and had a power outage in the middle of our moving to a new home. We were off line for over 10 days and just now (6 Aug 1:53 PM) got back online. We will do our best to get emails, shipping, etc caught up!!!"

    Either that, or the hamsters (powering those web sites) got into the single malt.

    I'm still not able to get on the Frugal Corners website. I know they were having issues with the supplier for the kilt I ordered, but I havn't heard back from them in a couple of months on the status. I hope that nothing is amiss.

    Kiltmart is back online. http://www.kiltmart.com/

    However, Frugal Corner has "gone dark". I've seen elsewhere on the web that there are a good number of customers with outstanding orders who are currently stranded without their orders having been fulfilled.
    Their website is gone, they are not answering emails, and according to these reports their phone number is not functional.
    I don't know if this is temporary or permanent- simply a status report.
