AW-LAB is a known EU retailer based in Italy. They restock items at random times during the week. They have 3 different domains, with separate stock, those being:
AW-LAB IT (Only ships to Italy)
AW-LAB ES (Only ships to Spain)
AW-LAB EN (Ships to the rest of EU countries)
This means that an item can restock for example on IT store but not on ES and viceversa.
AW-LAB is about prerunning restocking pids and being fast when they restock. They are known for overselling and cancelling, so you need to be from the first to checkout.
Only Credit Card is supported as payment method for AW-LAB. They have AYDEN as payment processor, so it's important to slightly jig your profiles and use different CCs.
AW-LAB requires a v2 Recaptcha to be solved on checkout most of the time. In order to be faster when solving it, you should use our feature.
In the Tasks.csv file for AW-Lab, the following fields are required to be filled in:
Profile: You should input your profile name from your profiles.csv
Mode: The mode you wish to use. Read the linked page to know the available modes and when to use them.
SKU: The SKU of the product you wish to run. You can run both main and sizepid, but it's recommended to run sizepids. Read the linked page regarding multi-pid.
Size: AW-LAB supports both RANDOM and specific sizing.
Delay: In MS. Minimum delay is 500, but it is recommended to run about 1000-2500ms.
Proxies: ISP and DC are ideal when running MONITOR mode. If you run normal mode, you will get ratelimited.
Dummy: (Optional) You can add a DUMMY column to your AW-LAB, if you are running into issues.
Profiles require to have a RegionID for AW-LAB. Check the RegionID list here. If you are unable to find your RegionID in the list, you can put the name of your State or Province as your RegionID.
A template for AW-Lab can be seen below. You can also download an example .csv here.
If you wish to get the sku of a product on AW-LAb, you first need the Url. In this example, we get the sku of this product url: https://www.aw-lab.com/donna/scarpe/nike-air-force-1-high-utility-AW_2212121B.html
Simply take the number at the end of the link and you got the sku. In this case it's AW_2212121B. But we always recommend you to use size pids over sku & random sizing setup. Using the sku to retreive the size pids only works if there are any sizes in stock on that product.
In order to run multiple SKUs in one task, just separate them by ;
Even tho this is possible, it is not recommended, as it will slow down the bot when detecting restocks (except when running Monitor Mode).
Will either use the Pid or Sku provided in the Tasks.csv file. It's recommended for initial DROPS. It will wait for restocks, cart and check out.
This mode works the same as NORMAL mode but it's preloading all your shipping information. This mode is faster but can cause issues when running for several days non stop. We recommend runnning PRELOAD over NORMAL.
This mode is made to be able to run for restocks 24/7, as it won't use any data for monitoring. The bot will start monitoring server-side the pids you input in your Tasks.csv,and when it detects a restock, will attempt to checkout. Running multiple pids in a chain with this mode will NOT affect speed. We recommend running this mode mostly for random restocks.
When running Monitor and Preload mode, we do suggest to run a mix of sku (general pid) and size pids for best performance.
We recommend that you use a custom dummy product (size pid) if you are running other regions than IT. Just add a row in your tasks.csv file called DUMMY. This should avoid getting "Failed to precart Dummy - OOS - Retrying..." on your tasks.
We recommend you to run a mix of all 3 regions for ideal results, but most stock is usually allocated for IT, followed by ES, and finally EN.
You should be running ISP/DC proxies with a delay around 1000-2500ms, depending on your setup. It is highly recommended to use a server to have even faster speeds.
We recommend you to create a list of products that can restock and you are interested with. You can find most pids in our #awlab-pids discord channel.
We highly recommened running a mix of Sizepids and main SKU, combining them in different chains. Do not mix main pids and sizepids in the same task for best results.
For restocks, we recommend running MONITOR and PRELOAD mode.
Proxy File Empty: You are running an outdated version of the tasks.csv. Delete all csvs from AW-LAB folder for bot to install the latest csv version.
Payment Error - Site Down: Your tasks were too slow to checkout when a product restocked.
Card Declined: AW-LAB usually declines your CC if the item you are checking out is OOS already.
Failed to Precart Dummy - OOS: The dummy the bot is trying to use is oos. Set a custom dummy as explained in Dummy.
For initial releases, we recommend running a mix of all modes, combined with
We highly recommend you to use our feature when running any mode. Threads and Delay will depend on your budget and provider which you are using, but 1 thread for every 5 tasks you are running should be a good reference point.
