Looks to me as if it has been known for quite sometime that they are not an Australian business. The first few posts are, well, staggering. Not without a point though.
At least 2 years, probably more and.

Dear Ice In Spacers,

Looks like this crowd has gone, disappeared.

Their webpage doesn't work any more. Plus their advertisements don't show up anywhere.

Not even any dead (or old) links showing up about them under a Google search.

Most unusual.

I have never seen this level of departure from all internet linkages before, this is more than merely unusual. You would expect that some trace of them would still available on the web, but I can't find anything.

I am aware the ACCC had issues with them, but they have basically ......... vanished - Completely !

Has anyone seen anything from them in the last week or so, if so - add it to this blog so we can all get updated.

I won't miss them, they weren't Australian anyway, not very honest in my humble opinion.

Rgds,
Astromelb.

Maybe the ACCC had the websites completely removed? If so, it took them long enough.
