:(inc. VAT) for the Trust Scanner by Asis on the 'phone today, a fairly

Dear Sir, 

The error was due to a typin mistake and was corrected but unforunatly the wrong
version got uploaded.

We have sent our appology to all those who have e-mailed us and also to the
relevant newsgroups. 

The advert should read
 INCLUSIVE OF VAT (EXCLUDE DELIVERY)

:This may well have been a genuine mistake, but a responsible company
:should really proof read their adverts before posting them.

We agree with your criticism and thus appologise to all concerned
