Worry Brother is on a distinguished road
Thumbs down Avon Distanzia's - no Production date via Avon until end of July 2008

All,

Please be advised that AVON have confirmed that at this moment in time they have NO prodcution date set for the next batch of Distanzias. They state that towards the end of July they will schedule a new date for the production of Distanzias, but it will not be before the end of July at the very earliest.

Therefore, if any supplier is telling you that they are due in shortly then basically they are telling porky pies.

Also, the Dave Milling issue over tyres not in stock is also worse than we all thought. Simplistically, the ones he buys and sells so cheap are DA's, that stands for Diminished Appearance, and when selling them AVOV stamp DA on the tread of the tyre as well as a sticker on the inside of the tyre. It appears from what i have found out that certain companies 'buff' off the DA stamp on the tread of the tyre and sell it as NEW.

Furthermore, E-Bay have written back to me about my complaint with this company and have eluded that they may/will have their ID revoked very shorlty due to the number of complaints about there lack of delivery, plus the fact that a DA tyre is actually a 'second' as far as AVON are concerned and should be Sold clearly stating that the tyre is a DA.

I hope the above is useful, so if you do need tyres then you may have to pay over the odds Guys n Girls until AVON sort their next production date out.

Deep Joy, or not as the case may be.

Cheers

WB
