Do you have anymore under the table?

Does anyone have a tactful answer to this question?  When a customer is shopping and they have chosen an item then they ask if you
have anymore under the table and they want you to pull out your inventory so they can look at it.  Its happen to me before and I’ve seen
it happen to others. They seem to always buy their first choice so its almost a waste of time.  You hate to say no, but you look
so disorganized going through boxes and stuff and everyone else starts asking you to do it because they saw you do it for another customer.  Any ideas on a nice way to avoid that?

I have one open box under my table with a few of each item I’m selling - I just pull out that box and let them look - when it’s slow, then I restock the table and put a few in my ‘under the table’ box - it works and remember, sometimes people get over-whelmed with too much choice, which can also hurt sales

Thanks!  I never thought of putting everything in one box.  i always kept each like item together and seperate from the others .  But that is a good idea then I only have to look in one box!  Such a simple idea totally missed that one.  lol
