Will Wishpicks tell me when a sold-out item is back in stock?

No — Wishpicks doesn't send back-in-stock or restock alerts. It tracks price drops only, and out-of-stock items don't trigger alerts.

No. Wishpicks doesn't send back-in-stock or restock alerts. Price tracking watches for price drops only, and an item that's sold out won't trigger anything.

What happens instead

While an item is unavailable it gets skipped. Nothing is sent when it comes back, and you won't hear about a change to its listed price either. See "How do price-drop alerts work, and how often are prices checked?"

You can still see where things stand. A wish shows whether the item is available right now, so opening your wishlist tells you.

Good to know

The workaround is the low-tech one: keep the item on a wishlist and check it now and then.

Wishpicks isn't a shop. It links out to the store, so the store's own page is the last word on whether something's really in stock.

If you're on Wishpicks Plus, the rest of your price tracking is unaffected. Your other tracked items carry on watching for drops as normal. See "What is Wishpicks Plus, and what do you get?"
