Okay, Rich has stepped up and offered to help. Anyone else? Not an IT guy/gal volunteer to do something else. Believe me, it even takes time to respond to offers of help when you are buried in your work. So I little patience please.

As an former outsider looking in. If I am looking to join a group of active amateurs involved with satellite work and someone said "hey you should look at AMSAT, they are the ones who put those things up in space" and I went to the website and I saw a very out of date "store is inactive until (insert date that is way past due)" i would assume that AMSAT is defunct and never look back. At best I would not believe the person that told me this is the organization that puts stuff in space if they can't even keep their website up to date. It is this kind of thing that discourages new members. There is also zero reason members should be attacking other members for bringing this up.
I how ever would not be discouraged if i saw "we are in the process of an upgrade. please call Martha for assistance" with no date. I would just call Martha. Having an out of date date looks super mickey mouse. I am with Peter and Andrew on this

Peter,
Stop looking at the page if it bothers you that much. What's with the constant nit-picking about EVERYTHING?

I'm not trying to criticize the people doing the work on remodeling the store. Stuff happens and without a full-time IT staff, it happens slowly. I get it. It's fine. More time is needed and that's OK - no one is going to die and if you *really* need something from the store, you can call the office (where there is a full-time staff person!).
But for goodness' sake, can we take the date, now >1 week in the past, off the placeholder page? Just put "closed for remodeling" or something.
