Thanks, Smok. Sorry to hear about the shop. It doesn't look like they sell online (I'm looking for a Terry Liberator Race).

Sad, but I'm not completely shocked. CT has a LOT of bike shops. Within the last year Berlin Bike was about to go under, until bought out by Pedal Power.
With the looming autumn, then winter, when many shops are lucky just to keep the doors open and power on, I imagine they could see enough into the future to know not to press on.
Here's their website, if anyone wants to take a look. Tolland Bicycle Home Page
