Hi Gents, does anyone know what has happened to this site as it appears somewhat changed.
It used to have a collection of Radio Constructor and similar mags for sale and I'm trying to track down some early copies.

Thanks, Ed

Hi Ed,
I bought some Practical Television magazines from him last December and I noticed a few weeks ago that it had all changed for the worse. It looks like he is giving up trading and is looking for someone to take it on.

I believe he sold off some stock eBay at one time, but I haven't seen anything recently.

Hi Peter, thanks for that. I've been looking at that site on and off for a while but he never seems to have any of the early 50's stuff I'm after. The old time supplies had some of interest but his interests now seem to have changed somewhat!

The website now seems to have gone. You get a message saying the owner may have the domain name up for sale and also a list of ads.

Over the last few weeks, whilst rummaging through threads for the archives, I've come across references to OTS a few times. I've been trying to find out the situation but, as has been said, it seems he's abandoned the website and is now just selling (or disposing of his remaining stock?) via ebay.
