Nope, they are definitely still open, however they did have a sale on last week, so may be a bit under the pump. (Not trying to make excuses!)
Best of luck!

Problem is they all seem to have their own part numbers, and it’s usually cheap Chinese Crap, that are the problem in the first place: Having 2 sizes to go I would prefer to know which one is the correct size: That way I can buy a high quality Blue label V-belt at half the price: from Kingaroy Bearings, Also I was horrified when I was told the Cir-Clip that they call MC900M26 was $1. And postage was the usual $9.00 Considering, so if I was purchasing without the belt, it would be $10.00, now I have just purchased a box of quality 280 mixed cir-clips, containing 15(c16) for a high price of $19.95, that works out to be 7-cents each, now considering they would have a better purchasing power than little old me, what a fantastic profit: And only-God knows what these robbing pricks are making on the belts: as a blue label M30 a larger belt than the one I am now chasing cost me only $10.10, with the criminal GST, I was quoted from the machinery mob, $27, plus postage for a belt for my Metal lathe, plus postage: and you can guarantee it was not Blue label, or anything close to Blue label. Maybe what we should be doing on these forums, is correlating sizes of replaceable parts, on common machines, so great savings can be had on quality replacements: Once I find the correct size, I will post it. I believe one of the main reason we are being ripped off, people have become lazy and dont shop around, which only feeds the beast:
