That can happen if a store only sells things in bulk amounts, like for example
if you want to buy 100 of a particular part but the store from which you're
buying only sells it in multiples of 500. You should be able to look at the individual
carts created and change them.

In Studio, the count in the status line (transparent line at the bottom of the
build) counts submodels as 1, it doesn’t count their composing parts.
You need to look in Model | Info to get the total count.
