Reassure with a small future promise

We hate missing out on what we could have had. How can you reassure people with a dose of future certainty?

If you sell products that are sometimes unavailable, the sense of loss and missed experience that results from the potential buyer can leave them feeling disappointed. Consider offering some mitigating future certainty to allow them to overcome their pain. Supermarket chain Tesco do this for out-of-stock items, putting on the label the specific date that the product will be back on the shelf.

In what way can you prevent the Fear Of Missing Out by providing future certainty that people can feel reassured by? Going further, they may be willing to pay more for such certainty, having already lost out once before.
