Does anyone know if Skyforce Space Patches has closed down its business as the website says no more orders being taken?
No new orders being taken until further notice. Suspending sales indefinitely.

The owner is a friend of mine and I am sure he will begin taking orders in the near future. He has been undergoing a lot the past couple of years taking on some personal family matters.

I would monitor the website and when he is able will begin taking orders soon.

I will post here once he begins taking orders.

I spoke with Joe and his Skyforce Space Patch website will shutdown indefinitely for the time being. He said it could be at minimum of three months or even longer.

He said he received new patches in this week and is in the process of filling orders that had been placed prior to him shutting down. If you had placed an order be patient and Joe will get your order mailed out.

When Joe is able to open the website back up I am sure he will let everyone know or will have me post here on cS.

On behalf of Joe, thank you to everyone who has supported Skyforce Space Patches over the years.

Has anyone heard from Joe? As I don't seem to be able to contact him. Still awaiting an order from him.

I heard from Joe last night, and while he is trying to fulfill orders as they come in, he is facing some medical issues that makes it difficult for him. He asks for patience and understanding at this time.

He is working towards getting back to normal.

Robert, as you have recently been in touch with Joe, is it likely he will be able to carry on the business in the future?

I know Joe would like to continue, but as of our last contact in January, it was just too much for him. He had to prioritize his health first (as he should).

I heard from Joe today (April 11) and he asked me to share that he is slowly getting back on track with his website.
