    So did I

      Sasha Is there anywhere I can read about this?

      I cannot recall the link. But there's nothing about thuis on their website so best check them first.

        Now found: is message on another site:

        A customer received this message today (14 Dec 2023:

        Thank you for your mail. We apologize for the late response.

        We have to put you off, as we are taking / will be taking a break for a few months due to family commitments (care) from Christmas onwards. Due to these events, we also have to make changes to our business changes. We plan to continue in the summer at the latest, if the economic/political circumstances permit.

        I would therefore ask you to contact us in late spring.**

        regardless of my own history, it's a shame to read this because i can always recommend Mysteel belts in terms of comfort and safety

        Oh dear. It would really be a pitty if the Mercedes of chastity belts would go out of business

          Max9 if the Mercedes of chastity belts would go out of business

          Hence the Rolls-Royce of chastity belts is Tollyboy 😂

            "UPDATE: 12/28/2023
            Dear customers,

            Due to unexpected family care cases, we are forced to make personal and business changes. For this reason, we are forced to take a break and will be back for you in summer 2024!

            Of course, all orders received by 12.28.2023 will be produced and delivered."

              Damien and will be back for you in summer 2024

              Better to say "might be back"

                Laura Because a successful business doesn't produce statements like this

                well, do you know the figures? maybe the figures aren't as good as we think, we can't draw conclusions about everyone from the many Mysteel wearers in the forum.
                maybe they need time to see if the business is still worthwhile

                  Laura
                  Look at it this way:

                  Chastity belts / equipment are definitely a niche product and not sold be the thousands per year. At least not the made to measure, serious type My-Steel is offering. So whatever they do, it is most likely a one-man or one-family shop that is more of a side-business rather than a full-time job to make a living from.

                  And quite obviously, if the person or family running that business have other and more urgent things to take care of - as that statement suggests - the belt production will have to be on the back burner until that other issue is resolved.
                  Quite the same with Tollyboy and Richard as business owner.

                  Laura
                  Until proven otherwise, I think the right word is the one My-Steel is using. After all, they do know the actual reason behind that statement and you do not.
