    If your order was successfully placed, but the item is now out of stock (BK), we will notify you via email with the following options:

    Cancel backorder items:We will remove the backorder (BK) items and ship the remaining available products out to you.* For "Grouped" sets or discounts, the entire set may be cancelled if there are BK or out of stock items.

    Wait for Replenishment: You may choose to waitfor the BK item to restock. No items will be picked or sent until BK item is available.
