    Hey,

    I have a question about the UK laptop sleeve online shop "WRAPPERS":

    DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THEM?

    From one day to the next, you could not open their shop homepage anymore. Typing http://wrappers.typepad.com would only get you "404 Not Found".

    A friend of mine ordered a laptop sleeve and received it, no problems at all, and like 2 days later their site went down and hasnt come back online since, there was or is no information either (like "were closed due to site maintenance" or anything) which seems weird, because it looked like a pretty successful concept and a shop with a good reputation.

    Its a shame because I had actually planned on ordering an ipod or laptop sleeve...

    So: If anyone knows what has happened or if their shop will be back at this address or maybe another one - TELL ME!

    LOL now THAT's funny, ive been trying to open this shop page for about 2 weeks or so, and tried it like a minute before posting this thread, and just RIGHT NOW it's back online, so... problem's solved I guess...
