Back in the mid 90's I worked for a then full time Gliding Club at a licenced airfield that also had Avgas available for sale.
Once, due to various circumstances, we only had sufficient stock for Club use so I attempted to have a NOTAM issued saying that "Avgas was not available to itinerant aircraft until further notice."

Upon calling whatever they were called at the time and attempting to lodge the NOTAM I was told point blank that I could not do so as..... "it is the Pilot's responsibility to call ahead and....."
They then hung up the phone!
