Hi, what if there is a bot detector, how could I skip it or pass it? Thanks!

"Do as i say, not as I do." that made me chuckle! Thanks for this! Is this still valid now?

[mercurygalaxii]

Thanks for the tutorial, easy and comprehensive!

Anyone trying this strategy for the 5000 series? Haven’t had any luck getting a 5090. I feel like companies are buying them for their data centres

[johnbaker]

Thanks for the video. The problem I cannot figure out is the site that I want to buy the product at, everything is normally sold out. So how do I go through the checkout process to get the right click codes for selenium?

Fantastic video! I'm trying to use what you're teaching on a different site. The problem I'm having is that the item I'm wanting to buy does not have an out of stock button or an add to cart button. When i look at other items on their site and compare the xpath from add to cart buttons, they are different. There is no id to use and the add to cart element looks like this: <button class="Button variant-primary size-normal">Add to cart</button> Any recommendations on what you would do in this instance?

[zacharygoodwin]

Not sure if this video, but you said that there is a faster/better method to use than xpath. What is that other method and will you ever show it in video?

[Felixprz]

Thank you for the Video it helped me a lot :)

[kevinidleman]

Thanks for the video. When I try and execute the lines of code at 5:29 in the video (in particular cell 5). It gives me either an invalid syntax for "break".

[anonymousengineer]

hello thanks for your tutorial i want to ask you tricky question in case this item not available and the bot trying to detect the buy icon in case it's showing how i can get the XPath of this button to proceed to buy in case this is the first time, please need your help

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'selenium' getting this error

[RocketLeon]

I'm curious to know why are you using something like anaconda instead of a traditional IDE such as Eclipse or Microsoft VC?

[NovaUnicorn]

Still learning and I have my script refreshing on a specific page that will wait until item becomes in stock. Is there a way to make it add say 2 items instead of just clicking the add to card button right away.

[hoquangnguyen]

Hi, can you help me how to buy products that only appear at a fixed time ? and before that, the link of the product will appear and it will show that it is out of stock

[NitroVipers]

I wanted to try this but do I have to find the product in stock on the site I want to use first? Or can I pick any item on the site and go thru the checkout process and just keep the original product url? I mean if I had to find the product in stock first what would be the point lol. I ask because there is no add to cart options when its not in stock. Another thing is sometimes they randomly raise the price way high, what if that happens and dont want it at an extra $500 lol.
