Sadness - +DV8+ Closing!

I learned late last night that one of my most favourite stores, +DV8+, is closing. This is heartbreaking because they've been providing quality gothic and cyberpunk gear for ages, before I ever touched Second Life. There's no explanation on their website, but there also hasn't been an update of any kind in over a month.

All of their Riot Vends, Lucky Chairs, Profile Pick Rewards, and Midnight Manias have been removed from the store. However, everything in the store is L$50 each, aside from some of the newer/bigger fat packs. I totally wasn't planning on buying any Lindens for another week, however this prompted me to do so, and I bought literally every outfit I like that they've made.

There is no official date of closing. The sign just reads as follows:
L$50 Clearance Sale!
DV8 is closing! But before we go, we're putting everything on sale for just 50L - so if you want it, get it quick!
That's it. I can't find anything about when it's going to close it's doors entirely, but I'm guessing it will be whenever their current land payment rolls around. As of this writing, there aren't even any of their models around to ask, and I totally forgot to ask the one that was there last night.

If you venture into any gothic or cyberpunk or even sci-fi sims, I suggest running quick and stocking up on some of this quality work before it disappears forever.
