Miniature-Giant still in business?

Anyone happen to know if Miniature-GIANT is still in business? Their website shows up on a search, but my anti-virus/web protection software (Bitdefender) keeps blocking my access due to an "untrusted security certificate." It could be that the certificate is just out of date, but before I override my security software, I'd like to make sure it hasn't gone belly up.

 

It once was a nice place to find all of Reaper's metal product ranges, even the hard to find metal Warlord range (which I've noticed some 9 figure sets on the Reaper store aren't being offered anymore, hence my desire to see if MG can get them). It's been several years since I've gone there though.

 

Thanks in advance for help!

OMG. 
Their website looks like a myspace page. 
they updated prices on  (8/24/22)  
but the "New releases section is from 2017.  
I would be very reluctant to order without sending an email first. 

 

wifey says they are using http instead of https - so passwords and other user details are not secure.  (this shows up as a little closed lock on the web address line 

she advices not giving them financial details.   I believe this is why your browser thinks its a security risk - but its not actively a threat.

I haven't ordered from them in a while but their site looks like it always has, only with more "out of stock/on backorder" notices.    I wouldn't trust that anything they say is on backorder is something actually on order.  If Reaper has stopped producing it M-G is not going to be able to order it either. 

 

I'd send an email and see if they respond within a few days.

Contacted them, got a reply back within a few hours. Guy named James replied, still open for business, said he hadn't been keeping up with updating the front page. There is now a new post on their main page dated today that they are still open for business.

 

Asked, and answered. Thanks to everyone.

To find out the current status of Miniature-GIANT, I would suggest trying the following options:

Contact Miniature-GIANT directly: If they have provided contact information on their website, you can try reaching out to them via email or phone to inquire about their current status.

Check online forums and communities: Look for hobbyist communities, forums, or social media groups dedicated to miniature gaming or Reaper's products. You can ask fellow enthusiasts if they have recent information about Miniature-GIANT.

Search for recent reviews or news: Perform a broader internet search to see if there are any recent reviews or news articles mentioning Miniature-GIANT or any updates about their business operations.
