• Possible Downtime Alert

    I am working to migrate THR from the current cluster to a new one. I would like to get this done before the weekend, but it's unclear what the timeframe will be, as testing is still ongoing. As I am writing this the new (rebuilt) host is doing a burn-in to ensure that everything will keep running under load.

    When the migration happens users will see a Cloudflare message indicatating it cannot connect to the server. This is expected, and depending on how the migration goes this may last from 30 minutes to 3 hours - I won't know more until testing the various migration options is complete and I have finalized the plan.

    More information is available in this thread.

    As always, thanks so much for your patience.

It looks like they have everything in stock, and at great prices....too good to be true?

Edit: Never mind, it's a scam site. Here is this Alert, from the Better Business Bureau:

Current Alerts For This Business​

Alert:
Midwest Reloads was reported to BBB in August 2023. Consumers claim they ordered reloading products from the website www.midwestreloads.com and were asked to pay through PalPal Friends& Family, Venmo or CashApp. Some were then also asked to pay a hazmat fee or an additional shipping fee, through a company called US Postal Mails. All consumers who contacted BBB reported not receiving the products they paid for and when they contacted the business, they received no response. Neither website www.midwestreloads.com nor www.uspostalmails.com lists a full physical address. The actual physical location of these entities is unknown. The website domain registration for midwestreloads.com was privately registered for one year and is due to expire on 2/1/2024.

Odd payment , no physical address . Why would anyone buy from them. How can this even come up. Why would anyone buy !!!!!
 
A friend of mine sent me a link for some reloading components on a website with a name very similar to a popular site.
The minute I saw they had Retumbo and Varget in stock I knew it was a scam.
By the time I warned my friend he had already placed an order.
