### 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.

* **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.

* 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](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/proxies) 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>

  3. Go to Elements tab on the top bar

* What is a good **QTY** to use?
  * It's best to check with your [cookgroup](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/cook-groups) 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)
