### Preliminary Checklist

Before setting up tasks on Gamestop, make sure you have everything below prepared:

* **Profiles**

> Create and save your checkout [profiles](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/navigating-stellaraio/what-is-the-profiles-tab/how-do-i-add-a-profile) under the **Profiles tab** in Stellar. These contain your billing, shipping and payment info.

* **Proxies**

> - High-quality **ISP** or **Residential** proxies are required.
> - Low-quality or flagged proxies will cause **Akamai-related errors.**
> - For reliable performance, consider using **Stella Proxies ISPs or Residentials.**
>   * If you're looking for proxies, check out [Stella Proxies](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/stella-proxies) for high quality ISP and Residential proxies. As always, it's recommended to have multiple proxy providers, don't just rely on one.

* **Cook Group Access**

> Optional but recommended. Your [cook group](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/cook-groups) can help you find product URLs, SKUs and early restock alerts.

<figure><img src="https://1122101074-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-MQL0BOlyqRRf7zyNKSf%2Fuploads%2Fr1qu6zFHWbWBC78H4F3n%2Fgsmonitor.PNG?alt=media&amp;token=ff0800ef-ec33-45ca-8853-a638318600fc" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* What **Mode** do I use?
  * **Checkout mode** allows you to cart and checkout any products from GameStop.com
  * **Monitor mode** allows you to monitor any product from GameStop.com. When the products you're monitoring come into stock, your monitor mode tasks will notify your running checkout mode tasks with the same product SKU
* What does **Profile** mean?
  * Select a **profile** you want to use and that profile information will be used when checking out items. Profile email has to match your GameStop account email from the sessions tab
* What type of **Proxies** should I use?
  * ISPs for monitoring and residentials for checkout tasks
    * If you're looking for proxies, check out [Stella Proxies](/stellar/botting-basics/proxies.md) for high quality ISP and Residential proxies&#x20;
* What is the **SKU** and how do I get it?
  1. Open the the product page, for example <https://www.gamestop.com/consoles-hardware/playstation-5/products/sony-playstation-5-pro/20015604.html>
  2. `CTRL+SHIFT+i` to open Developer Tools
  3. Go to Elements tab on the top bar
  4. `CTRL+F` and search `SKU`
  5. The actual product SKU will appear to the right of the search result. In the example image below, the SKU is `C200246`

* What is a good **QTY** to use?
  * It's best to check with your [cookgroup](/stellar/botting-basics/cook-groups.md) for quantity recommendations as different products may have different purchase limits set by the site
    * Stellar does not automatically adjust the quantity if you set a number higher than what's allowed
* What is **Account**?
  * Select your [account](#h_08b1548129) to use for you task&#x20;
    * This is optional, it'll use guest checkout if you don't select an account
* Which **Delays** should I use?
  * Monitor Delay: Around 5000
  * Reset Delay: Around 5000
  * Checkout task Delay: Around 1000
* What is a **Watch Task** and should I select it?
  * **Watch Tasks** waits until another source to ping it to trigger to attempt to add to cart. In this case with GameStop, your Monitor mode tasks will notify your running Checkout watch tasks when that specific product has restocked. The monitor task and checkout task need have the same product URL&#x20;
    * The benefits of using watch tasks are 1) You'll use less proxy data as watch tasks do not use proxies while in Waiting status and 2) You'll be using less proxies overall which will reduce proxies being detected from the site

### **Common Errors and Fixes**

* **Moving To Cart: `Status 410`**
  * *Cause:* Error during add-to-cart flow; item is out of stock (OOS)
  * *Solution:*
    * Stop tasks **or**
    * Let tasks run a bit longer in case of a restock
* **Loading Product: `Status 403`**
  * *Cause:* Most likely proxy-related
  * *Solution:*
    * Try different proxies
    * Test different proxy types
    * Use a different proxy provider

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/retailers/gamestop.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
