As promised, following is the complete text of the announcement,so everyone else can see what we're talking about, and come to their own conclusions.
Sharman Wheels P.O.Box 8238, Chelmsford, Essex, CM1 7WY January 1st 2006 Dear Customer,
As you are probably aware Sharman Wheels have been experiencing some difficulty in supply, particularly, over the last 6 months or so.
This has been caused due to severe problems, that were beyond our control, within an associate company.
This has unfortunately meant that 95% of our time and effort has been directed at getting this associate back up and running, consequently we have almost `run out' of stock and as many of you may have noticed this is helping neither you or us.
We have therefore taken the decision to withdraw Sharman Wheels from the market place for a period of between 6 and 9 months, to allow us the time to build up stocks.
The website will be taken off line for rebuilding and will be uploaded again once we can supply wheels.
Please therefore find enclosed your returned order together with your cheque/ card details
