Is the TubeLab forum still up and running?

Yes, it works. It did move to the marketplace location sometime after the new diyAudio went live. It took me a couple of days to find it, and I still get emails saying it's down. It seems that the entire diyAudio forum site went dark for some phone based users.

I have been sidelined a bit by many of life's usual distractions, but my lab and bench rebuild is now completely on hold due to an arthritic condition in my knee (likely gout) that has prevented me from getting down the basement stairs. I'm in laptop only mode for the time being.
 
As a gout sufferer myself, I wish you a speedy and long-lasting recovery.
Gout is the most likely cause of the redness, inflammation, joint warmth, pain, and loss of mobility that hit my elbow early in 2021, and my knee recently. Gout runs in my family, and the doctor says gout, but the definitive test for uric acid build up in the joint requires a test that must be done while the joint is inflamed. The hospital that can do that test is over capacity with Covid issues right now, so I really don't know for sure. My toes, the usual target for gout, have never been attacked. Doc thinks it may be because I never wear shoes. Oddly the elbow was severely swollen, bright red and purple, and very warm to the touch, but didn't hurt much. The knee was only mildly red and swollen but hurt so bad that I couldn't sleep or walk for two days. Now almost three weeks later there is still some pain when walking, but all other symptoms are gone.

Yes, boards are still available, and the pricing is still current. In order to reflect a decline in quality of service, the USPS has chosen to raise its prices. It now costs more to send a board than I collect in postage, so I will raise my prices accordingly once I run the loss numbers for 2021.
