I used to work for an online retailer that did not show stock information, so items were currently sold even if they were not in stock. This resulted in the customers having to wait for new stock to arrive and it was sometimes a great inconvenience for them. The company didn't really have a good way of updating the inventory information anywhere close to real-time, so they had to deal with the fact that customers were leaving them daily due to a decreased trust in the site's dependability.
