What happened to parrothead88 on ebay?

I'm guessing that most of us who collect cards and also sell on Ebay have purchased bubble mailers from parrothead88. All of a sudden, they are gone and from the looks of things just poof and NARU. parrothead88's feedback I wonder what could of happened? They had the best prices for mailing supplies and I've bought from them for years. Check out the onslaught of negs all at once from the past month and a half. How can a powerseller with almost 160,000 total feed and almost 80,000 unique feed just vanish? Hope they're okay. Does anyone know?

    I collect Vintage Cards, Commemorative Sets, and way too many vintage and modern player collections in Baseball (180 players), Football (175 players), and Basketball (87 players). Also have a Dallas Cowboy team collection.
  • The story I got was they they were living on credit basically trying to finally get ahead. Everything I have heard is they are now over 1 million in debt and finally had to declare bankruptcy. They also apparently sold the business to another company. There are some reports of this company is now emailing past customers trying to restore their faith in them. Last I hearm most of the "screwed" buyers have been getting full refunds from the previous owners.

    I am not sure how much is true this is what I have picked up from various boards on Ebay and other sites.
