I am just getting started stocking my store. In my inventory, I show 35 of an item but when I look in my store it only shows a quantity of 1. How are customers to know that I have multiples of that same item?

Hi there,
I apologize for missing your post. If you have run out of inventory, the item will simply not appear in your Store. If your buyer tries to enter a number higher than the quantity available, he will get an error that indicates he needs to choose a lesser number.

I don't think you understood my question. When I look at my items in my store, they all show a quantity of one even though I entered a number larger than 1 when it said also sell "x" number of items in my Vendio store. How will my customers know they can buy 10 of something when the store listing only shows 1?
Unfortunately there is no column that states number you have in inventory. You may want to edit the items themselves and state something like "10 in inventory, get them while available!" to get interest from buyers in your items.

But when the customer clicks on the View details button it takes them to another screen where it does say Quantity 1....why can't that say Quantity whatever I've loaded into the sell at my vendio store now? To manually change every listing every time to decrease the number of pieces I sold sort of defeats the purpose of putting in multiple items so you don't have to babysit them.
1001 SMALL SOLID STAR UNMOUNTED RUBBER STAMP DIE 1 $1.99
I have loaded 13 of these into the sell in my Vendio store and it only shows 1 available for sale on the details page.
This is the quantity being added to your shopping cart. This is why the shopping cart page allows you to change the quantity wanted and click to update this amount.
We will pass along your suggestion to display to your buyers what your currently available quantity is, rather than just collect the quantity requested.
(if they try to choose a number higher than what is available it will correct and give them only what is on hand.)

Thank you. Because to me it looks like there is only one available and I'm sure that's what my customers think also so why would they even try to choose a number higher than one?

When does the customer get an error when they choose a quantity greater than the quantity in stock?
I have an item in stock with a quantity of 1. At my store, I was able to specify a quantity of 10 and it recalculated the total. At what point, does it tell the customer that 9 items are not available?
