Actually they've been around for...I think a year and a half now, he said?  

I called this summer, hoping to buy some of the cotton with lycra stockings 
that I *love* for reenacting.  Which is the only reason I know that timeframe 
for the new owners.  He said that, unfortunately, one of the very first 
suppliers he heard from/spoke to was the maker of the stockings...who called to 
tell them that they were going out of business. :-(

Anyone come across a stocking that is basically heavy cotton tights that aren't 
attached, but will stretch and fit a short person with heavy legs, please let 
me know!

Meanwhile, customer service there is as great as it ever has been, if not 
better :-)

Judging by the full selection of goods on the website, I'd say that they 
finally 
have gone digital. :)
