The site seems to have died out a long time ago. 🙁

it did die out a long time ago (I have ordered stuff from the original ages ago).
He opened a newer site a few years back (2007-2008) selling laptop parts, and that crashed and burned.

Now I know that this is an even bigger longshot... but does anybody know if this site is active?

They have a ton if useful things including replacment mobos for mostly every mac model.
After browsing the site a little more I found these hard drives listed:
0 0 0 WD10000033-000 WESTERN DIGITAL 1TB EXT.HDD
0 0 0 WD10000D033 WESTERN DIGITAL 1TB NAS MYBOOK WORLD ED EXT HDD WDG2NC1000N
0 0 0 WD10000G032 WESTERN DIGITAL MY BOOK WORLD 1TB EXT HDD
0 0 0 WD10EACS WD GRNPWR 1TB SATA/16MB Cache 3G 7200RPM HDD
0 0 0 WD10EACS-00D6B0 WD GRNPWR 1TB SATA 3G 7200RPM HDD
0 0 0 WD10EACS-00D6B1 WD GRNPWR 1TB SATA/16MB Cache 3G 7200RPM HDD
0 0 0 WD10EADS CAVIAR GREEN 1TB SATA 7200RPM HDD
So it seems slightly evident that the site was updated sometime recent.

They don't have a toll-free number unfortunately. 🙁
and you're right, there are a lot of things of interest there. I realized they have a support email though, so I will send them one.

Do they actually have any prices listed? I did not get to browse at all because the shit-scripts on that site killed firefox pretty quickly.

You actually have to type in a quote what you want to pay for the item at checkout.

My guesses on that part is the system has a set price so you can only go so low in price before your offer get's denied.

They have a Canon Rebel XSi for sale. That kind of says "we're still around".
