Am I guarenteed to get the item I have "Added to Basket" after I click t he "Add to basket" if the Amazon is limited stock, or small amounts of stock.

what I mean is; if there is 1 item left, and two people want it, will the first one to click "Add to Basket" be able to pay and sucessfully buy the item?

Just because you add it to your shopping cart does nothing to reserve the item. It just wouldn't make sense -- I can add something to my shopping cart now, but not actually go through the checkout process for months. I could even abandon my shopping cart and never purchase the products there. Why would Amazon "hold" the item for that long if someone else is willing to checkout right now?

I learned from Business Law that a transaction begins when the customer walks up to the cash register, exchange currency and upon closing the cash draw all requirements to the law have been satisfied. You got your merchandise, the correct change and so did the merchant. Legally, when you turn around, count the change and discover some shortage or overage that doesn't matter, however most merchants would open the drawer again.
So, think of this like the cash drawer on the cash register.
