Patience everyone, Mark's not gone.
I too had the same thing happen, as I have been shopping recently myself.
I emailed Mark and his reply is he's taking a break.
Sometimes, you just gotta get things caught up on, need to take a breath, etc, etc. And I can respect that.
In all of my years of doing business with him and his company, I have never had any issues, nor problems with his products.
He is a fantastic vendor and I'm thankful he is still around.
I know he will be back, and when he does, he'll have my return business.
