What every happened to Pacific Trading Cards?

MacrosB post on the buy, sell, trade forum got me thinking...What every happened to Pacific Trading Cards?
Growing up in Seattle in the late 70's and through the 80's Pacific Trading Cards and Mike Cramer was a huge player in the business...to the point of producing his own cards with an NFL license. I remember buying wax boxes for $5 each at his annual sale to make room for more inventory. I remember the big aution house in town sold off all his printing equipment 10 or more years ago. I had heard he made his money in crabbing and then toured the country buying cards. Tony

I like a lot of their stuff - some really, really nice-looking cards.
And I'm working on their patch subset from their NFL 2001 Atomic set. Great cards.
