Hey I was on looking to order a few acekards2.1, i haven't ordered any for sometime and to my shock and horror the site I normally go to seems to have vannished. Does anyone know what has happened? Or does anyone know equally cheap/cheaper sites?

make sure you type https://dealextreme.com because for some reason dealextreme has moved there whole site to a secure one hence the https instead of http "S" secure but any way if you use the "S" then it should work and don't forget if you use any links on the dealextreme website and they dont work just go to the address bar and add an "S" to http:// to make https://

Alright first of all they haven't moved their site to a https. That would be completely ridiculous and unfeasible (the bandwidth would multiply by at least 10). Some lill brat has decided to DDoS (essentially bombing the site with millions of requests till it fails) the site and as its from countless IPs (your could be one of them without you even knowing - get a real virus scanner damnit) I believe they are having issues fixing the problem permanently.

Https will work for now despite some browsers saying against it just add to the exceptions. With the https site you will just have to refresh it a couple of times and then it will run seamlessly. And as to zero's comment - No, no you don't need the www.
