I could not agree more - just tell the truth
I was disappointed that flightstore, who I buy regularly from had run out of the Jeppesen pro logbook when everyone else said they had it in stock.
Turns out that it does not exist!
This description is the only one I can find. This is proactive and not trying to take customers money for products that don't exist
"This logbook is being completely revised by Jeppesen. As your Jeppesen authorised dealer for the UK we will make available this product as soon as we have received the initial stock. You can click the "Email me" link and as soon as the item is in stock you will receive a simple text email informing you of the stock status."

So I fully concur ..... How hard can it be?
