FAQ
Backordering an item means the shopper can buy the item now and receive it at a future date when the item is in stock and available. When an order contains a backordered item, it can't be packed and shipped immediately given the lack of physical inventory at the time.
Dear Customer's Name, We regret to inform you that there is a slight delay in the shipment of your order. Our team is actively addressing the issue, and we expect to dispatch your order by New Estimated Dispatch Date. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.
Factors Affecting Backorder Fulfillment Your supply chain: The longer and more complex the supply chain for a backordered item, the longer it will take to acquire enough to meet demand, and the more likely it is that the item will go out of stock before backorders are filled.
Retail or eCommerce stores are selling products on backorder with a guarantee to deliver the item to the purchaser as soon as it is replenished.
An item on backorder is an out of stock product that is expected to be delivered by a certain date once it is back in stock. Businesses will often still sell products on backorder with the guarantee to ship them to the buyer once their inventory has been replenished.
Once again, it depends on the manufacturer, supplier, the company, and the product itself. On average, it takes between 14 and 21 days to fulfill a backorder. In some cases, it can take even longer than that. If it's a matter of only a few days, customers will most certainly be patient.
When an item is available for backorder, it means that the product is not available for immediate shipment because it is not in stock. If you place an order for a backordered item, your order will be in a sort of “queue,” and you'll have to wait until the item is back in stock for it to be shipped.
1 Explain the situation Apologize for the inconvenience and thank them for their patience and understanding. Avoid using vague or generic terms like "delayed" or "temporarily unavailable". Instead, use specific and clear language like "backordered until date" or "out-of-stock until date".
