backordered

backordered items are products that have been ordered but are temporarily out of stock. When an item is backordered, it means the supplier or manufacturer has not yet fulfilled the order, but it will be shipped once the product becomes available again. Customers can typically choose to wait for the backordered item to be restocked or cancel their order. Many retailers offer the option to notify customers when the product is available again, ensuring that the purchase can still be completed.
