manafont as good as dead now,too bad since i have a good experience with them in the past :~
Dead? I don't get it. The page is loading fine for me. They even have some interesting new lights I've not seen anywhere else yet.. ?
I will confirm that it does not work because I tried to buy IR module there. You can not finish transaction. "New management" screen appears so don't even try.
Last order I placed never arrived. Got no response on my inquiries. Neither did Paypal.
What’s really strange is that deaths of these types of vendors is not more frequent.
+1.
Up to about mid-2012 I was regularly ordering stuff from Manafont. Then things started to sour, so I stopped using them.
Don’t think I’m ever going back.
I’ve had good experience with Manafont before. I wanted to place an order two months ago but the new management thing appeared. Goodbye and I have to look at somewhere else.
Tried contacting them 3 times now : No reply ..
My guess is they went out of business and are keeping the site up hoping to sell the domain. 
I think it's time to use all Mana points, before Manafont ends.
I think that ship has sailed.
I will try in the next two days. If I get nothing it's the same result as I wouldn't try to pay an order with Manapoint and the homepage get offline. I will not invest money for the order - only use manapoints (value round about $16).
LOL
Far across the ocean, back to HK.
What are some good current alternative to Manafont?
At the moment I think Fasttech, Wallbuys or Banggood. All have an own deal thread.
