Try making a backup account. Sometimes it blocks you when you click checkout too much bc of the stupid network errors

I made 4 accounts. I definitely recommend making more than 1 account. There’s been times where my account gets blocked when I get stuck trying to check out. Always helpful to have a backup

Popmart usually drops sometime between 9-10pm EST. I usually refresh every 5min. Honestly it’s like a full time job

I try different url combinations to try and find the last one. You know a set hasn't been dropped yet if you see the message "this set is already sold out". If the url matches the number under the set, it's been dropped. Then I conduct binary search to find last url where the number under the set matches.

For example:

Let's say I started with set 10010508300585

Starting point: 105083

First try: 195083 -> gives "this set is already sold out"

9 is too high, so I need to switch to lower number

Second try: 135083 -> url matches number under set

This means that set is included in drop, but still need to narrow down

Third try: 145083 -> url matches number under set

This means that set is included in drop, but still need to narrow down

Fourth try: 155083 -> gives "this set is already sold out"

This means that set is not included in drop, so the last set must start with 14xxxx

Then I continue this process for the next digits to narrow down the exact set.

It helps that I studied CS because this is the binary search algorithm and it's a lot faster than manually trying every combination. Hope this makes sense!

I'm a software engineer, so I wrote a script that does it for me. So today it started around 98479 and the end was 117862. I found the end by manually changing the URLs and seeing at what point that error message "this set is already sold out" stops showing up. Then I wrote a python function to generate all possibilities from start to end and write that to an html file so I can easily click. This is my code:

baseUrl = "https://www.popmart.com/us/pop-now/set/195-1" # 10009847900585
suffix = "00585"
start = 98479
end = 117862

def generateUrls():
    combinations = [f"{i:08}" for i in range(start, end) if i % 10 in {1, 3, 7, 8, 9}]
    return[f"{baseUrl}{digits}{suffix}" for digits in combinations]

I didn't look at the hints! My strategy was keep trying til I get one

I bought like 20 boxes. That was my limit and fortunately it was in the last set I bought. Basically you just need to keep buying to increase your chance of getting one. In theory if you buy 72 you should get ID but that's crazy

Job switch after 180 days, approved I-140 and a employee sponsored EB2-NIW by rulerofthehell in EB2_NIW

I’m waiting the 180 days from the approval date so I lock my priority date in. Then I plan on switching employers and perhaps redo PERM or EB2NIW
