dynamic store with one-of-a-kind items inventory

[jenna_artist]

Hi. I'm setting up shop to sell my artwork via paypal and the way they handle items with an inventory of 1 is that once the painting is sold, the next person trying to buy it gets an error message - yuck! I'm looking to set up a dynamic store where, once a painting is sold, it's automatically removed from the store or a 'sold' message appears and it can't be added to the cart. Can I do this with Zen Cart?

I found out that ASecureCart includes a postback process that can be used to do this but it "does require a bit of programming like ASP or PHP on your website to a) capture the postback data from the cart in realtime b) update your own store database"

I'm not a programmer, so I'm hoping Zen Cart will be my answer.

Thanks so much,
Jenna
