Why advertise when no stock available?

I ordered a white umbrella. Leroy website says 64 of product available. However they sent wrong colour umbrella and their call centre say they do not have stock of the colour I requested, and paid for.

Reviewer Update
Standard form letter from Leroy, saying nothing.
i ordered 3 items - one was a drying rack which has broken hinges
1 was a white umbrella - despite advertising that 64 are available, it now transpires that this might be an "error with the website".
I am assuming that salaries are being paid to staff for maintaining the website? and checking the quality of outgoing stock? and checking that the goods dispatched comply with the order? Not to mention the wasted delivery charges and running a centre to rectify incorrect orders?
