Most people miss Pokémon/TCG restocks not because the item sold out — it's because checkout takes them 45+ seconds and the cart's gone in under 10.

A few things that actually move the needle if you're trying to cop retail restocks yourself:

• Pre-fill everything before the drop. Card info, shipping address, saved payment method — every manual field you fill in during the window is a field that costs you the cart.

• Know the retailer's inventory pattern. Target and Walmart push restocks in waves, often 5-15 min apart. One miss doesn't mean the drop is over.

• Multiple profiles > one fast profile. Retailers rate-limit and flag repeat carts from the same account/card. Volume across profiles beats speed on one.

• Proxies matter more than people think. Residential IPs get further than datacenter ones on most anti-bot checks.

This is exactly the problem we built TCG AutoCop to solve — you hand off your card/profile, our bots handle the timing and checkout automation, and you just watch the wins roll into the Success Channel. If you'd rather not deal with monitor tabs and 6am refresh sessions, that's what we're here for.
