Hello everyone,
simple question : Does anyone know if Erestraint / Orchid is still in the business ?
Trying to reach her via Email and I am not getting any automated reply about the emails beeing undeliverable.
But I am not getting any replies either.

Thanks for letting me know !

Hadn't thought of that. Thanks for the hint.
Sending a PM via Ebay and see what happens then.

Originally, I though Orchid WAS eRestraint but learned later that the guy who is selling on eBay now is the owner.
I do not recall his name.
Orchid (if I have my facts right) was serving in the capacity of a model and was not running the erestraint business.

Hmm...change of owners ?
I was discussing things with Orchid all the time.
Well...at least he / she / it was saying that.

Happy New Year 2020 everyone!

Orchid contacted me about 20 years ago to inquire about a locking medical contrivance I had up for auction. While she certainly worked as an (e)restraint model, she also served in the buying/selling capacity and may have also been the website administrator, though I'm not sure if she owned the business.

Since I was also auctioning off excess vintage S&W and Peerless cuffs at the time, she told me about the Handcuff Forum.

sold some keys and repaired some cuff for Orchid back in Nov 2018, sent them back but never heard if they arrived, either that was because she's american or deceased. In all my dealings with her since about 2001, she has been the only one doing the talking and running the site.

It's great to see you posting, Ian! Are you still in NSW? The images coming in on the weather channel have been a bit disconcerting to say the least.

Orchid likely intended to email you but has been tied up of late.
