"Maximum stock of PRODUCT that can be purchased is 1"

This isn't a very user-friendly message for end-users to see :/

Could it be made customizable? Or specify a path to a contact page where users can enquire about restocking times?

Customizability is covered by #1180940: Provide setting to change the "Out of Stock" message (at the global, product type, and individual product levels).

In the meantime, a nicer customer-facing message would be good! :)

I just wanted to add that I think it would be even better to present some functionality regarding notifying the customer when the product is back in stock.

Very nice idea! I think that would be best covered by a module(s) that plugs into one of the two subscriptions frameworks.

Work on Version 2 has started, or more accurately will start tomorrow (:
it will use rules and a sub module architecture for the configuration of its behavior. the plan is to have an action that can allow or stop the add to cart transaction and set the message.

version 2 now has the option to create you own messages (and much more) using rules.
would be great to get some ideas about what should be the default behavior and users will always be able to override it themselves.
i am closing this for now as i am hoping to focus on version 2 but if anyone wants to write a patch for 1 adding this functionality ill be happy to review and commit it.
