The shop is iHostART, run from Orastie, Romania. Its company is MAN HOSTING GMB H S.R.L., CUI 44507600, incorporated 29 June 2021, registered at Str. Tudor Vladimirescu nr. 60, Orastie - the same address a third-party profile gives for the shop. Three independent Romanian company-data sources, read today, agree that its 2025 turnover was 0 RON, down 100 percent from 150,075 RON in 2024, and that it reported 0 employees. The company is not dissolved and carries no ANAF debt, so this is not the dissolved-UK-company trap; it is the quieter one: an entity that is still registered, still lists products, and reported no revenue at all in its last filed year. A buyer sending EUR 5.40 or any other sum to it is buying from a shell whose filings say nothing came in last year. On top of that the products cannot be bought: all three in the group read '0 Available' and the product route answers 'Out of Stock'. And no price renders on any route tried - the only figure anywhere is EUR 5.40 a year from a September 2022 forum post by the operator, which is four years old and is recorded as reported, not as the current price. The specification itself is worth noting's purposes: the NAT64 plan opens zero ports on its shared IPv4 and gives a /64, so it is IPv6-only in practice, which is exactly the shape is hunting. What is not established: the current price, the checkout fields, and whether the shop and the company are still the same operator today - the profile claim dates from 2022.
