I call BS on it being a registrar problem. if that was the case the second URL wouldn't work either. Any 101 Admin would know that. DNS problem maybe, but if it was a registrar the entire dealextreme.com domain would be down.

They definitely have a DNS issue of some sort. I looked up their whois record and both their primary and secondary DNS servers do not resolve www.dealextreme.com (http://www.dealextreme.com).
Oddly enough, those are still the same DNS servers that are correctly resolving www2.dealextreme.com.
I am not sure what their issue is, but their explanation is not entirely forthcoming.

Maybe they're behind on their hosting bill :roflmao2:

All i know is that i've been waiting weeks for my freakin' order and it still says "waiting for supplier". i wish they'd do that for each individual item so i could see if it was any particular thing that was holding it up and then just cancel that item and get the rest of my stuff shipped to me.
