Yes- I tend to lose interest when they say "This O.E. part will be special ordered in for you"- it's just shouting out that they don't know if it is still available or not! Maybe the parts they say are obsolete and no longer available are just where they have tagged their database that the above never worked out the last time someone wanted it...
In my early NOS hunting I remember another UK website that appeared to have everything in stock and duly took your money- then just kept emailing me saying it was not obtainable, not obtainable, not obtainable.....

I think there is an American connection with the Silver thing.
Guessing that is where they think they can get the parts from......or not in many cases of late. They might be going by a stuffy out of date parts list that was probably last updated in 2003.

The prices on CMS aren't too bad at all - but the postage charges put me off (can't really grumble too much, seeing where they're posting from...)

The vat and the postage is frankly a bit of a joke to be fair.....
When you look at a decal that is around 17 euro for example and the final checkout is around 46 euro does take the Michael, just a tad..
You certainly have to use them sometimes but try and place a big order.
