I love that my sales are not interrupted by out of stock anymore. My customers don't even need to know that the item is temporarily not available - I restock quickly. The shop does not lose sales now, and I'm very happy about that.
Sven,

I love the ability to set my custom pre-order message. This allows me to easily tell my customers when to expect new arrival. Not only they pre-order hot selling goods, but they can also see how long it is going to take. Great ext!
Egil,

It helps me with out of stock items. I don't want my customers be stopped by out of stock sign, I want them buy anytime. So this extension comes helpful, customers don't even know that the item is out of stock. Convenient! Setup is not very easy though, Aitoc support helped me with this.

This extension helps us stand out from our competitors, as now our store can accept orders for any items. We never lose customers just because some seasonal or trending products are sold out. If an item is out of stock, we simply sell it as a pre-order product. What we especially like about this module is that it allows us to leave messages on product pages and send custom email notifications to buyers once their orders are available.

Great product however, if a product has "pre order for out of stock products" and you sell that last one - it doesn't allow you to ship. This made it pretty much unusable for us, aside from that, it was perfect!
