This is a video I need right now! Can't believe I am learning to code because of copping sneakers. Just started with the python basics but hopefully, I can build it up in the next month.
@@at_flyy6553 Update a little about my botting journey. I spent like a week on coding and eventually made it. However the thing was useless (no proxy option, very bad speed, and frequently dysfunctional for no reason). Then I went straight on buying bots like anb, nsb, eve, cyber, and whatbots. In the first two months, I got the sneakers I want with original price and eventually earned several thousand bucks from reselling. But things went downhill when more and more people joined the game. It's like the Gold Fever season, not enough gold for everyone. I paid a lot on maintaining my tools (proxies, servers, cook groups, bot subscriptions, etc.) every month regardless of the fact that I was constantly losing money. After 4 months of part-time botting, my passion faded and I had to face the fact that I can't buy enough shoes to cover my cost. So I sold all my stock and quit during Christmas (glad I did that!!!!!). Now when I look back, I found the game a pure involution with a very low technical doorsill. I only earned my money at first, the rest of the time was struggling not to lose money. But I was still kind of lucky, as one of my friends (a big sneakerhead) nearly got bankrupt during the Cov-19 season. lol in a word, just pay the damn price, don't be me.
Not trying to discourage anyone from learning Python or bring any negativity to the video. Maybe two to three months ago I started here too, because sneaker bots are expensive so why not just make my own. But the thing is, python just is not quick enough for a sneaker bot. Using AutoHotKey with image recognition to click buttons cuts 3/4's of the time this bot would take to checkout, and is a lot easier to code. A lot easier. Now of course that's a kind of jerry rigged approach, but it does what it's supposed to do faster than you or I can do it. If you still want to know how to make a sneaker bot as fast as the top ones, you're gonna have to move completely away from looking at the browser and figure out how to send requests to the website without visibly seeing it on the browser. And no I don't mean running a headless browser. You're also gonna need something faster than Python like NodeJS. But is it worth doing all of this? As a learning experience sure. If you're trying to make money and learning how to code doesn't necessarily benefit you, then I'd have to say fuck no. Buy a bot and spend time learning about Proxies and such, and other things you'll need to run that bot as effectively as possible. Your time is literally money in the reselling world, and the intricacies of making a successful diverse bot is an undertaking that you would need the equivalent of a comp sci degree in knowledge for. Not that it's impossible to gain that knowledge. You could teach yourself or just go to college for it lol. But do you really want to bury time and effort into that is a question you should ask yourself first. This tutorial still has it's benefits other than that though. It basically gives you a blueprint of sorts to make a shopify monitor. Do with that what you may.
definitely wrong. you can build a quick enough implementation in python, but in 2-3 months you're not going to gain near the expertise you need to write it out
you can make a fast bot with python, look at project destroyer with it being one of the top sneaker bots as of rn. It just takes time, patients, and a learning path that most people dont understand or dont want to do. There is a ton of helpful information in these videos and highly recommend to continue watching them for a learning experience but the main thing id stay away from is selenium. Easily can be detected from the site your botting and is slow. I personally am making my own bot not just cause it might make me money, but because i enjoy it. If your just doing it for money id say stop and look up how to make google cloud proxies to make easy money and stop wasting your time.
great video! I love that you guys explained the logic in the beginning, but I did have to go back a few times to process it b/c you kind of breezed through that point.
Hi I was trying to get in contact but realized UA-cam removed DMs. I'm curious if you use this bot for actual reselling and if so what is your success like? I work as a software engineer so these bots really intrigue me. I want to try and build the best bots possible. My goal is to make reselling/copping what people want to be easier and more fair for everyone. I think everyone deserves a chance!
I love these videos I knew absolutely nothing about coding before watching these videos but you made it very easy to follow. I’m going to try and create one for the fun of it. I have so many questions though does this method only work if you have the product url or is there a way to search for keywords and also is there a way to add a captcha solver to this or a method to have captchas pop up when asked to solve for them?
@@natec7838solution: (worked for me) go to CMD (run as administrator just in cast) type pip install requests, then open python i found version 3.73 worked for me and then it should work along with selenium/chrome driver

So what if you don't know the name of the product but know the date and time of the store going live, can the code be altered to buy any available products on a url? FYI this isnt for sneakers
Awesome video! Is this pypi.org/project/requests/ the correct link to the PyPI requests download? Kind of new to Python so I don't really know what the correct thing to download is haha. Thanks!
Hi Greg. Seems like for whatever reason that link didn't take me anywhere. If you are trying to get requests though, make sure to install it with pip. 'pip install requests'
@Gowther what if you have the sitemap.xml? I guess I'll look at that and see if I can find anything via a search on the sitemap page. I'm just trying to apply some of the logic from this video to the task I wish to accomplish :)
Keep up to good work! Let me know if you have any questions. Also, if you get stuck you can go to stackoverflow.com to seek solutions for similar issues.
I'm pretty new to this. So, what's the difference between using json and bs4? Just a different way to achieve the same result? My question might not make any sense. :D
Well basically what beautiful soup is doing is allowing us to move around either a json structure or an html doc. You can think of it like this. Json in a sense is like a file format. What beautiful soup allows us to do is search and traverse the file format.
im currently working on a supreme autocop bot. you could use something like products = driver.find_element_by_link_text("product name"]) by this comment you are searching for a certain text on the page, if its found you could do .click() which makes it click the link behind the product name. this would be a different system because if the product name is not found you should use driver.refresh() which refreshes the page.
@@chefdan_ its working, but it has timing isseus, for example if supreme site lags it doesnt wait until its loaded, but it just counts to for example 3. if the site has more lagg than those 3 secs it gives an error and freezes
not sure if i am too late but i have been trying out .json on various shopify websites and all that shows up is very little code. I am very new to concept of webscraping and know .json is a file type? Anyways did shopify websites update like their framework or what on earth is going on? I am quite confused XD
ok i may have found the problem i need to do "nameofstore.com"/products regardless of how the website was organized. for example i did feature.com/products and when i visisted this specific link nothing shows up but when i add .json to the end, it magically lists all products for this website
if you are skilled enough you could integrate some code that allows the discord bot to connect online and then attach it to this code so when a a command is type for example "!run monitor www.blahblah.com it will gather the information and display it to the user or even automate it even more"
@@NukeDDuck-np5ye okay sorry. So that's because you don't have the module on your computer. To get the module you have to install it to your python library.
