Do you think that this happened about the time they started
having a shill posting pointers to their auctions here?

That shill is an eBay affiliate, he posts similar shills in other
newsgroups (like the photography newsgroup).

The word is that they were losing money on their store front, so they
closed it down.

Sigh....snivel...sob....

So whats the final word? Is it closed or not?

the retail store is closed, but they will have occasional parking lot
sales - I was told this in person by several of the staff at the last
parking lot sale

as an aside to this, I stopped by CalAero to look for a small right angle
drill accessory (the kind used on aircraft sheet metal) - they didn't have
it, but they had a lot of 30, 40 and 50 taper tooling put out - they said
they wanted to get rid of all their surplus (no idea what that leaves them
with to sell) - the web site says new management - maybe they will become
another "cheap tools from china" place rather than a place to buy surplus
cutting tools - if you are near Paramount in Los Angeles, it may be worth
checking out just in case the information I was told is actually what htey
intend to do

That is what I was told also.

Ebay is looking to be THE PLACE that one can reliably find tooling
these days.

But not at the pricing I was used to paying.
