Shopotron does not have stock levels.
When it says available it means the item is current, i.e. not discontinued.

When you place an order through Shoptron it goes into a pool where model shops around the UK "pitch" for the sale if they have the item in stock. After 24hrs (time for the shops to view the available orders) it is assigned to the shop closest to your location.

Because of this method Shopotron is unable to give stock levels because it's not connected into all of the shops involved.

Also due to the way the system runs it does take a few days longer than going direct to a shop and ordering it with them, but it does widen your chance of finding a shop with the item in stock.
