luke_stevens Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Hi Anyone know what is going on with the Eileen's Emporium website? It's been giving a "maintenance" message for a couple(?) of days. There is nothing on their Facebook page to suggest there is a problem / mentioning maintenance, which is unusual.

woodenhead Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Their Ebay page says the following: I guess they'd rather switch off the site than be inundated with complaints about unfulfilled orders. A closed for maintenance is clearly easier to implement on the web page than a holding page for the whole site. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Kris Posted December 4, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 4, 2022 Given that they are meant to be at the Manchester show next weekend, it could just be that the site is genuinely down for maintenance. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eileen's Emporium have pulled out of the Manchester show due to illness (or so I've been told). Jonathan 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crichel Down Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 (edited) I have been informed this morning of an announcement that has been made by or about Eileen's Emporium, but because I have not seen the actual text of the announcement itself, I do not think it would be appropriate for me to comment on it. Hopefully, more definite news will be published fairly soon. Edited December 9, 2022 by Crichel Down Correction of minor typo 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the moment it sounds just like I heard a rumour I am aware of the source from which my information came, but I received it indirectly, and so I do not have sufficient certainty to enable me to quote the reported statement. I am not in the business of peddling rumours, so I don't think it right to comment further. I had expected that something definite would have emerged by now, but in the absence of any further news during the course of today I am beginning to doubt the accuracy of the information that was passed on to me. Which makes it unwise to add anything further at this stage. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
