They're not closing completely as in disappearing, just completely moving over to the shit 'marketplace' that's increasingly crept in to their site so they're basically the eBay nobody will use. Once they stopped showing their own price as default and just listed the cheapest third-party I lost interest. They used to be ace, then their prices went up and delivery speed went down. Once Amazon moved to free delivery I gave up on Play.
Amazon now has free delivery as standard (+ quicker for cost as speedie mentions). It used to be that you had to spend a certain amount to get the free delivery, I remember it was as high as £15 at one point. That's when Play was king.
Used to always use Play but now Amazon is king and you can buy practically anything and everything on there! If you use the free standard delivery option it seems to arrive in the guaranteed time period offered by 1st class delivery.
I used to use Play.com quite a but but use Amazon more often than not now.
Not everything is free delivery but you can usually get it on most items (or maybe thats just me looking for free postage items so i don't have to pay p & p )

There is always an option for free delivery if you are actually buying from Amazon, some items on Amazon are sold by 3rd party sellers who can charge postage
