Phat Cat's DISAPPEARED!

The Phat Cat sim was auto returned 9/02/08 between 2-3 pm slt by Melah Carter without warning.
'All our guests that were there at the time were dumped into the water suddenly, and all shop owners had all their objects returned into their inventory.'
Group Notice sent by Melah Carter:
"I have auto-returned everyone's items due to the new owner's failure to complete payment on the sale of Phat Cats. I am sorry it came to this, and that the club and mall will be down for a time."

So what's going on?
In a press conference held by the new owners, Barbarella Noel, Amethyst Jetaim and Jody Huet some questions were answered although please take into account that Melah Carter was not present to answer the charges due to the fact she was banned (understandably) from the sim.
The sim in question was bought from Melah Carter 2 weeks before and a deposit to the value of 37% paid the rest due to be paid upon delivery of all agreed to pieces of property that makes up Phat Cat's :

So far they, reportedly, have not received the Music List or the complete ownership of the Groups or the signed contract from Melah.

Jody Huet stated that "on repeated occasions we attempted to contact Melah to arrange the final details of the contract, however, she did not respond on any of the occasions we attempted to contact her" after more questions Jody also stated "we were able to restore most of the sim by asking Linden Labs to roll it back." He further asserted "We will be very glad for Melah to have the chance to sign the contract, transfer the rest of the property as agreed, and receive the final payment."

Phat Cat's was up and running again quickly.
A complete overhaul is planned for the near future, lets hope this hiccup can be sorted out quickly and painlessy.
