Why Does an Ecommerce Store Show Different Inventory in the Cart and Product Listing?

Listings may use cached or indexed stock while cart validation checks current reservations, warehouse rules, or selected variants.

Checks to make

Compare the product and variant identifiers, inventory source and sync time, reservations, and warehouse assignment. Reproduce with a controlled cart, then correct the authoritative inventory or refresh the specific index after confirming the cause.
