They did migrate the website a year or two back, so are you perhaps using the old address (though it did normally re-direct)? 

I only bought some flags from him last week, so all seems good. :)

And the glorious general led the advance
With a glorious swish of his sword and his lance
And a glorious clank of his tin-plated pants. - Dr. Seuss

That does sound like the problem.  Some people had the same error message from my site before I upgraded to https.

This happens on my websites all the time; the SSL certificate needs to be updated. I'm not tech savvy enough to do this myself, so the problems persist, as most browsers will flag websites with an old certificate as dangerous/suspect, even though 99,9% of them are not.

They have the same issue. You can probably mitigate this problem manually by adding an 's' to the website's 'http' in your browser...
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...

Yeah, I had to do mine recently, as the site wouldn't back up until I did.  However, the process was insane gibberish, so I can fully understand why some people don't bother.  Thankfully, I have a daughter who is fluent in Gibberish...

Love Maverick flags. Awesome service. Too bad of the wee connection issues.

+1 on the "daughter who speaks Gibberish." Me too. Almost pays for all those years of tuition! :-)

I am fluent in old school mainframe gibberish, not so much in newer PC gibberish... General concepts similar but syntax often quite different.
