I first noticed the ClubIT website was down today, but didn't think much of it. Then I saw this at HardOCP:

Yikes

Hope no one has an open order to track down!

Ouch... guess that's why I only buy from certain places. Grin

The site is back up and announcement makes it sound like business as usual will go on...

Considering they shut down mid day and told the employees they were laid off at first, I don't thinkI would trust them to buy there again.

I've never shopped there anyways, so no big deal.................Wink

Now that they've done the up and down thing a couple of times, I'll be sure to stay away all together.

I bought a D805 from then when it came out. Took them 2 weeks to ship it even though it was "in stock". Swore never to shop there again. DaEgg gets me stuff next day (thank you NJ Distro Centre)

I'd definitely wait a few month before ordering anything from them. If they have been acquired by someone else, it's going to be a long uphill battle for them to get people to trust them again. Things like this just don't go away very quickly.
