Went to PlanetAxel today only to find this:
I know this wasnt the perfect retailer but being in Europe i've always loved using Planet Axel to import Steelbooks from the US and Canada since i was guaranteed to not have any customs so im truly sorry they went bankrupt (and that i lost my PlanetAxel voucher with all this)
PlanetAxel.com is no more!
It is with great sadness, deep regret and utter embarrassment that we announce the closure and bankruptcy of PlanetAxel.com
On Monday afternoon, June 18th, 2012 the board of directors have informed us that no further investment will be made in the company. This comes in light of the recently finished 2011 financials which showed such an insurmountable deficit and loss to company value that a swift decision was made almost overnight. We have been asked to provide a quick summary/FAQ of your options as a previous customer of PlanetAxel.com with respect any outstanding orders/refunds.
On a personal note I would like apologize to everyone that will be somehow affected or inconvenienced by this matter. I've spend half my life with the company (18 years in total) and it all ended today. This is not 'just business' to me, but sincerely personal. I can honestly say that this has been a sad, sad day for all of us here at the office but the fact that so many suppliers, affiliates, employees and most important of all, customers are affected by this bankruptcy is almost unbearable.
On behalf of everyone at PlanetAxel.com I offer my sincerest and heartfelt apologies and thank you for your support over the years.
With sincerest regards,
Rasmus Christiansen, General Manager
