What Happens When You Buy Something Not In Stock?

I was wondering if anyone knows how this situation works. Circuit City had a bunch of video games on clearance. Of course the majority of them were out of stock but it said that they would contact you once it was back in stock. So does that mean you still get the games at the clearance price if they get any back in or since they're on clearance, they probably won't get any more in, even though they say they'll "let you know?".

Has anyone tried pricematching clearance games at B&M stores? Even thought the games are still priced anywhere from $19.99-$29.99. And we're talking prices like $1.96-$3.96. Thanks

Hmmm, I thought the whole point of clearance was that the item wouldn't ever be back in stock.
