SALE Stock and Oversold items: Due to the huge volume of stock moving through our store and online shop there can sometimes be small discrepancies in our stock numbers. Due to this we can sometimes unintentionally oversell products. This generally happens during sale periods when everyone is in a hurry to purchase items at amazing prices.
