I would suggest only presenting status information (out of stock) to
the user if it's necessary to manage expectations. If the user sees
the item on your site they will assume it's in. Might not hurt to
mention quantity available as mentioned above. 

If the item is out of stock I suggest presenting that information to
users at the item level unless one wants to anger potential
customers.  Down the same line of thought, if an item is out of stock
I would still provide a number of options to complete the purchase,
making sure I detail out when they should expect the merchandise.
