It's been gone for a long time now. It was once believed the site was just getting a makeover/update, but that no longer holds true as way too much time has passed.
Maybe some others have more info but this is all I know.

Somebody hacked into the site and just wiped it clean. All the hockey guys are on Facebook now. Look for the following groups:

- Vintage Hockey & Sports Cards Plus
- Vintage Hockey Collector Talk
- Vintage Hockey Autograph and Card Collectors
- VHC - Vintage Hockey Collectors

The Vintage Hockey Forum was truly awesome! I spoke to Jim at the time that it went down. He didn't know what had happened at the time but he was hoping to get it back up. He was looking for the right person to fix it but it never happened.

To me, the Facebook groups just aren't the same. I do see some of the guys from the VHF, but not all of them. The new groups are more about buying and selling, but I don't see the same kind of vintage stuff that I used to see years ago on the old forum. I have met some new guys though who are serious collectors.

I miss out on a lot of cool hockey stuff because I refuse to have a Facebook account. I wish there was another option.

Agree 100%. Not on Facebook and never will be. Love it here on net54. If the hockey conversation and hockey bst picked up not sure I would ever leave.

Hi Earl. It was a great forum with a ton of information. If you are in contact with the former members maybe you can point them here and we can just use this forum. I would love to see the new pick ups from the guys. I just can't do Facebook.
Thanks, Damir

Agreed. VHF was great! Not too many people posted over there, but whenever somebody did, it was worth a read! Facebook, in comparison, does have groups with hundreds or even thousands of members, however, most of them don't know sh*t and don't have sh*t. Sorry if I sound like an a**hole, but it can get tiring looking at $10 commons day after day.

If it's vintage or pre war I'm good, but the new shiny stuff is just not my thing at all.
