# Scheels
Our **Scheels module** supports both monitoring and automated checkout using a true **first come, first serve (FCFS)** flow. Because restocks can sell out quickly, success on Scheels depends on fast monitoring, stable proxies, and proper monitor-to-checkout pairing. Stellar supports **watch task workflows** and **multi-variant checkout** for size-based products, allowing users to efficiently target multiple sizes without creating extra checkout tasks. This module is best suited for **sports cards, footwear, apparel, and limited-release items** that restock without warning. With the right setup, Scheels can be a consistent and reliable site for securing high-demand products. *** ### Quick Start (Recommended Setup) *(For members who want a fast setup without reading everything)* 1. Create and save your **Profile** with correct billing, shipping, and payment information. 2. Add **ISP proxies** for monitoring and **Residential proxies** for checkout under the Proxies tab. 3. Create **Monitor Mode tasks** using the **base SKU** for each product you want to run. 4. Create **Normal Mode (Checkout) tasks** for the same products and enable **Watch Task**. 5. If the product has **size variants**, enter multiple variants **comma-separated** in the Checkout task. * Use base SKU only for cards or non-sized items. 6. Set delays between **4000–6000** and Reset Delay around **5000**. 7. Start Monitor tasks first, then start Checkout tasks and confirm they show **“Waiting for Monitor”**. 8. Before major restocks or releases, run a **test task on an in-stock item** to verify profiles, proxies, and delays. *** ### **Preliminary Checklist** Before setting up tasks on Scheels, make sure you have everything below prepared: * [ ] **Profiles** > Create and save your checkout [profiles](/stellar/navigating-stellaraio/what-is-the-profiles-tab/how-do-i-add-a-profile.md) under the **Profiles tab** in Stellar. These contain your billing, shipping and payment info. * [ ] **Proxies** > - **ISP proxies** – Recommended for some of your tasks > - **Residential proxies** – Recommended for majority of your tasks > * Save both proxy groups under the **Proxies tab** in Stellar. > * 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. *** ### Task Overview ### Monitor mode
### Normal mode
#### What Mode Should I Use? **Monitor Mode** * Monitor Mode only checks for product availability. * When an item restocks, your Monitor Mode tasks will **ping your running Watch Tasks (Normal Mode)** to add to cart and checkout. **Normal Mode** * Normal Mode is your **checkout task**. * These tasks handle add to cart and checkout once triggered by a Monitor task (if Watch Task is enabled) or can monitor and checkout on their own if Watch Task is disabled. *** #### Profile Selection Select the **Profile** you want to use. * The billing, shipping, and payment information from this profile will be used during checkout. *** #### Proxy Recommendations Both **ISP and Residential proxies** work well on Scheels. * ISPs are ideal for monitoring * Residentials are recommended for checkout If you need reliable proxies, check out [**Stella Proxies**](/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/proxies.md) for high quality ISP and Residential options. *** #### Finding the SKU (Important) Scheels SKUs are found in the **Image URL**, not the Product URL. Steps to find the SKU: 1. Go to the product page 2. Select the color (if applicable) 3. Ensure the item is **one size only** (no size dropdown) 4. Right-click the product image 5. Click **Open image in new tab** 6. Copy the SKU from the Image URL Example: * Image URL:\ `https://scheels.scene7.com/is/image/Scheels/04160439437?wid=1000&hei=1000` * SKU:\ `04160439437` *** #### Multi-Variant Support (Checkout Tasks Only) Scheels now supports **Multi-Variant input for Checkout Tasks** on products that have **size variants**. How this works: * **Monitor Tasks** * Always use the **base SKU** * **Checkout (Normal Mode) Tasks** * You may input **multiple size variants**, separated by commas * No need to create separate checkout tasks for each size Important notes: * This is **only for size variants** * Variants must belong to **one product only** * You cannot mix variants from different products Examples: * Shoes * Monitor Task → Base SKU * Checkout Task → Multiple size variants (comma-separated) * Cards / Non-Sized Items * Monitor Task → Base SKU * Checkout Task → Base SKU *** #### Max Price **Monitor Mode** * Enter the **max price per single item** * Example: * Item retails at $29 → Enter `35` **Normal Mode** * Enter the **max total order price**, including quantity * Example: * Monitor price: `35` * Quantity: `10` * Normal Mode Max Price: `350` *** #### Quantity (QTY) * A safe default is **1** * Your [cookgroup](/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/cook-groups.md) should provide you with exact QTY recommendations based on product * Increase quantity only if the site allows multiple units per order *** #### Delay Recommendations * Recommended delay range: **4000 – 6000** * Adjust based on proxy quality and site behavior *** #### Reset Delay Reset Delay controls how long (in milliseconds) a Monitor task waits before restarting after detecting a restock. * Recommended value: **\~5000** *** #### Watch Task Option **Watch Tasks** * Do not monitor the site themselves * Wait for Monitor Mode tasks to detect a restock * Once pinged, they immediately add to cart and checkout **Non-Watch Tasks** * Monitor the site directly * Use proxies continuously * Add to cart and checkout on their own Best practice: * Use **Monitor Mode + Normal Mode (Watch Task enabled)** for better performance and fewer proxy bans. *** #### Cashback Options **Use Rakuten** * Enable this box after completing the [Rakuten setup guide](/stellar/navigating-stellaraio/what-is-the-settings-tab/how-do-i-set-up-rakuten-cashback.md) to earn cashback. **Use TopCashBack** * Enable this box after completing the [TopCashBack setup guide](/stellar/navigating-stellaraio/what-is-the-settings-tab/how-do-i-set-up-topcashback.md) to earn cashback. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
