Basically I have availability of 300 tickets and when that number gets to 298 tickets sold and only 2 left what happens when the user on the site tries to buy 4 or 5 tickets? Does he get a message at the cart stage saying there is only 2 tickets left, or on the event page or somewhere? If there is no message what exactly happens with the transaction &#8211; does it sell the 4 tickets so I end up with 2 people who will not have a seat or how does it work? If someone with experience here can let me know that would be great. I just need a work around that makes sense frankly to deal with this situation and not have total confusion at the end.
