Pantellic Corp., dba as "Photopointcom" and "Photopoint" has pulled a nasty trick this Christmas that would even do proud for the Grinch.By now, everyone should be aware that the site has closed—perhaps indefinitely—leaving irate and aggravated customers to sulk and wonder if it will ever open again. Had I known that this internet website had been closed in July and reopened, I never would forked over $30 last November. Not only that, but they are a company doing business out of the very unlikely spot of Halifax, Nova Scotia, in Canada, which also lists a San Francisco address: Photopoint Corp. 250 Montgomery Street, Floor-16, San Francisco, CA 94104.
A CNET online news report states that photopoint was "struggling with debt", but instead of filing for bankruptcy, the company did an assignment of the benefit of creditors, making Sherwood Partners responsible to sell its assets. Here is an explanation on their website what they do for clients like Pantellic Corp:
