Default What happened to Newdefenderparts

Has anyone checked the Newdefenderparts webstore recently? It directs me to a page showed thy are on holiday since couple weeks ago, and no other access to the website at all. It just don't feel normal for an online business close for holiday.
Also the instagram account has also disappeared. I was gonna order the black side steps for my 110, now I am out of ideas.
Anyone knows what happened to them?

I was texting with Chris last week - he’s on vacation with his family. Same goes for his IG account - both closed shut down while he’s away.

Thanks for the information, and I am glad to know the online store will be back to business when he is done with vacation.
I just gonna wait for it and hopefully the website relaunches soon.

I did buy my black side steps from Chris and he was and the steps are fantastic. So worth being patient for!

Sorry, but what? Who shuts down an instagram when they are on vacation?

Probably somebody who’s IG account allows people to place orders through IG - and given that he’s on vacation he doesn’t want to take orders that can’t be shipped while he’s on vacation. Not rocket science.

I own my own company and we have an instagram that clients / prospects DM us from occasionally, and I check that from the beach, or the mountains, or Europe, or wherever, vacation or not. Like. Everyone. Else.
