Darzil's remained active for another three years, closing in 2015 because the people who expressed a desire to take over performed no work whatsoever.
He had informed the community of his decision and offered to keep the site running, so long as someone else was willing to come forward and actively work on the site. By the time Isengard had been released, somewhere around 2012, the person running Darzil's had decided to step down. (Using weapons cosmetically back then was strictly for RP purposes.) You could find anything crafted or bartered there up to level 65. Most players at the time went there to see armor skins, usually in full sets, but some went there for weapons.
