Estimated shipping date based on inventory

Estimated shipping date based on inventory

We are migrating our business to Shopify and would like this feature.

We have 5000 SKUs but a lot of which with low stock. If a customer orders f.i. 10 units when we have 8 in stock, we would like to display an alternate shipping date dynamically for the 2 units not in stock. The only app I could find that managed to do this is Pre-order Manger Pro. But the price is just too steep for our shop. Anyone got a solution?

Seems like it should be possible to do with the Delivery Customization Function API. So you basically want to just add a note somewhere to indicate that the additional not-in-stock items will take longer to ship?

Thank you for you reply.

 

No i want to show the estimated delivery time for items in stock for instance 2 days.

Now when the customer tries to add more items to the cart than there are in stock

the estimated delivery time changes to 5 days. 

In the shopping cart i want these items to be seperated with different delivery times.

I'm the OP.
The only way i've managed to do this is with Pre‑order Manager Pro.

Not using it at the moment since we are still developing our store, and are trying to cut back on apps.
