Exclamation TrackItBack (Appears to be out of business!)

Does anyone know if this former DM partner has gone out of business? I was looking to buy some more stickers for newly acquired devices and it seems to be gone.

They have a UK website, but I can't get the US site to load.

I've no idea if they're still around, but if so, shoot me a PM and I'll send you a bunch.

Unhappy This situation looks bad

I bought a new suitcase and applied a TrackitBack sticker to it. I went to the website to register the bag. I can't get either the US or Canada sites to load.

So I called the 800 number they print on the stickers. The recording, "You have reached a non-working number at Apple Tree Answering Service. . ."

I found a number for the HQ in Winnipeg and while the auto attendant answered the call, I could not connect to anyone at any of the offered extensions.

Bummer.

Bummer, I actually have these stickers on my Blackberry and iPad ... might just have to make up my own I suppose.

Guess this means the $2,000 in stickers I have sitting in my home office are worthless now ...

If you've got one of the internet calling services, try TrackItBack's UK headquarters - at least their website is still up.

Well, I guess I don't have to feel bad about "wasting" the $1500 worth sitting in my drawer.

There are a few competitors to TrackItBack but I am thinking I am better off just ordering some labels with my cell# and email address.

I've been considering the same over the last week and reached the same conclusion. Once bitten...

Seems there are good online options for getting durable customized asset tags printed.

Can't really help you with the quantity part, but it seemed to me that ~$44 for 100 vinyl tags was a reasonably good deal even if the quantity was more than I needed. http://www.myassettag.com/

The metal tags are more expensive, but generally seem like overkill for my purposes.
