Are Starfighter decals still in business?

I have attempted to order some decals for my Federation ships a couple of times from Starfighter Ace, and have received no emails (or credit card charges). I've also tried emailing but haven't received a reply.
Has anybody recently ordered some decals from Starfighter Ace successfully? Or is it just me? It might be that my email address automatically gets treated as spam.

It's been a few months since my last buy from Mark.
I'd assume that your 'email bouncing as spam' theory is most likely.

He's still around as far as I know. I just spoke with him today, via email.
From my recent conversations with him, he does nearly all of his business through his website now at
http://starfighter-decals.com/ complete with full color pictures of everything and a shopping cart and checkout via Paypal. Nice setup.

Yes I know, that's the system I've tried to use for my orders, it just hasn't worked for me. I'll have to try another email address. How bizarre!

Did you ever get a hold of him?
I placed an order about a week or so ago, and got it so things are working on the new website.

I decided to put off getting the decals I want until I get a few more miniatures which need them, so that I can make one big order to save on postage.
Postage from the US to Australia isn't cheap!

As an aside, that being the case, I am glad ADB is one of the few American companies I have bought mail order items from which doesn't inflate its postage even further from USPS rates. It's nice buying things from a company which seems to want to make its money selling actual products as opposed to ripping me off on inflated P&H

He sells hull types by the sheet, which is somewhat inconvenient. I'm trying to swing a group buy together (with a known member from this board, if he'd like to chime in) to split costs. So if you're interested...

I just got a pretty good-sized order, 46 custom Feds, and the quality is fantastic. Highly recommended.

Hmm... Have you considered making decal sheets for the FC Border boxes?

In fact, he already does.
