Low stock warning. Back in stock estimation.

Contributor: Elaira Elaira
There have been several times I'm picking things for an order, go to order it a few days later, and find that some of the items are suddenly out of stock. If I would have know that the stock was low, I would have ordered them sooner. I think it would help to have a place on the product page where you could see how many were in stock, or a warning if that number dropped below 10.

Also, there are certain items that seem like they're out of stock forever. I think it would be great to have an estimated time till the item was restocked. This would eliminate having to create a support ticket asking about specific items.

Those are great ideas! I am still waiting on a bustier to be restocked and am being very patient, but I really had plans for it and had to revise them and will need something else.

You can always submit a support ticket and ask when something will be back in stock, but I agree it would be nice to have it displayed.

Submitting a support ticket does not always help as much as people think. I don't think that even they know for sure all the time. I asked about a product and it wasn't back in stock until about a week and a half after the time that I was told.

I agree that a low stock warning would be helpful. It might not always entice me to place my order earlier, but it would be nice to know that a certain product is running low.

Yes please! I just ordered a FF Tiger along with some other things only to find out that the red is going to have to be back ordered. If I knew the stock was low I would have went for the black instead just so I wasn't waiting on it.

Just a simple little "low stock" badge next to the item would be very very helpful

I think the problem with that is that sometimes the manufacturer we order replacement stock from doesn't always get it in on time. I have experienced that too, where I was given one estimation date but it didn't show up until a while later. While most of the time their estimated stock fill date is right, there are times where it's off, and in my experience with customer service they will give you an update if you ask and they have it.
