Robot cache was founded 8 years ago.

This post only says that it will be shut down in 30 days.

Sure it was founded 8 years ago but when did they begin actual operations, not book operations?

I mystified what it was that I read in that post that made me think that they only lasted a month to begin with, before announcing they were shutting down in a month. And even more confusing that I've literally never heard of them, that seemed reasonable when I thought they were a month old.

Some people are going to get screwed pretty hard here then, if they've been buying games there for years. Pretty horrific management of the situation if they can't work out a deal with steam to save people's games.

I understood the same - the post title implies that it has only existed 1 month. Should say "shuts down in 30 days".

Yeah, thanks - that must have been it. I read their post with the inference I took from the title in my head and didn't re-examine it after reading their message. And they didn't say anything like "it's been a great 8 years" like a lot of similar posts might to dispel it.

I also read the title that way, the only thing that made me reread it was that the post itself said sth about the " past few years".
