Why Is The Fortnite Item Shop Disabled?

If you go to the item shop section in Fortnite, it displays nothing and the page is completely blank.
Furthermore, the blank page of the item shop displays No offers available.
This is indeed due to an error in the system disabling Fortnite’s entire Item Shop section.
However, due to the many complaints, Fortnite realizes this issue and is working on fixing it.
Fortnite Disables The Item Shop Temporarily
Due to the live event happening on December 2, Fornite removed all the old items to add new items from the shop.
