This might be because the product is out of stock, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for, because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product or because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified. In the case of a course or retreat if said course/retreat/service needs to be cancelled or moved or any other unforeseen circumstances.
