Snipes
Hey Goats we have created a small overview for you on "how to cop on snipes"! We are gonna explain you the optimal way to succeed and each important step to success on Snipes.
1. Step Account
As most of you probably already know, an account is essential for copping on snipes and solebox, since it saves all the important information and your checkout will be much smoother and faster.
So the first step will be to create an account on snipes. For that go to the register page and create a new account if you do not have one already. As already said above it is crucial to have his information saved, such as Delivery Address and preferred payment method.
2. Step Starting point before drop
After you have successfully created an account and understood the system of demandware, we can now move on what to do before/while drop.
In general, Snipes usually drops between 8:30-9:00 AM CEST, but that is not guaranteed. We have seen quite a lot of drops in the afternoon. The good news are that you will always have information about drops about 5 minutes before drop if you are in Goatify!
Closer to drop time Snipes will activate their bot protection (PX), most of the times about two minutes before drop. This concludes for us that it's optimal for us to be logged in atleast 2 minutes prior to drop time.
As the drop is getting closer, we have to make sure that we stay logged in and do not get auto logged out. If you are using our Extension, you do not need to worry about that since you can just hit "keep sessions alive" and the extension will make sure that you stay logged in. If you are trying to hit manually you could either just refresh yourself about every 10 mins or you could just install an auto refresher. If set up correctly it will refresh automatically.
3. Step Drop-time/Checkout
If you have managed all steps until now at drop-time, you are prepared very well.
As you may have red in the Solebox Guide, you are always staring every run from your account page. That means if it's drop time and you are giving it a try manually, you should search the desired product from there.
"But isn't there maybe different ways to get onto the product page?"
Yes, you are absolutely right!
Searching the product through the searching bar
Searching the product under the page "New"
Copying the PID into the searching bar
Those are the main ways. If you are using an extension you won't need to worry about that. Everything is explained in the guide for our extension.
"What do i do if I get ATC block?"
Unfortnutely there is not much you can do if you get atc blocked. That's why we hardly recommend to run multiple sessions at once, so you are able to switch between sessions to succeed.
Since it is not easy to run multiple sessions manually, we recommend using an extension which handels multiple sessions at once. Since you have joined our Goat community, you have access to our Extension.
4. Extras
As you already know it is important to run with proxies, but we still advise you to run one to two sessions without a proxy. It makes quite a difference, since there is a noticable speed difference.

Problems that might occur
In general as a reseller, especially as a botter, you must always remember that you are most likely not wished to purchase that item/shoe. That's why we sometimes will have problems and then have to solve those quickly.
ATC Block, we have talked about that already here.
IP Block, happens in checkout and you cannot really do anything against it. The only way fixing it, switching the ip and clearing your cache.
PX Block, you can only solve it manually and is most likely caused by your proxies or if you are using the wrong mode. For example if you are using request-mode when PX is already activated.
