Creating a Supreme New York Bot for Under $500

Chapter 1: Overview of Supreme New York Bots
Supreme New York is known for its highly sought-after apparel. Unfortunately, purchasing their latest items online can be quite challenging due to the intense competition.
Recently, a client from Kansas, who owns a clothing store, approached me with a request to develop a bot that could automatically order clothing from Supreme New York. His goal was to buy items online and resell them at a premium. After some investigation, I discovered that certain items can sell for up to three times their original price, presenting a lucrative opportunity for him. However, his manual ordering process was too slow.
Once I grasped his needs, including the requirement to input credit card details automatically, I set to work using Python and Selenium to build the bot.
The bot's development and testing were relatively straightforward, taking me approximately one hour to complete. The first step involved retrieving the website's URL. Next, I identified the XPath for each element I needed to interact with. For example, I had to input the credit card number and expiration date, and also find the XPath for the order submission button. Additionally, I ensured that the order total stayed within the client's budget.
Upon finalizing the bot, I used PyInstaller to create an executable file, which I then uploaded to my Dropbox for easy access. This way, my client could bypass the installation of Python on his computer. While this method does result in a larger file size—around 30 MB—my client was unconcerned about this aspect, although it’s not my personal preference.
P.S. I often challenge myself to write bots or Python code as efficiently as possible to enhance my earnings per project. Typically, I can finish most requests in under an hour. However, I don't bill clients by the hour; instead, I set a fixed price for the job. This approach allows clients to feel they are receiving a fair deal without knowing my actual hourly rate, which might be as high as $250.

Creating the bot involves several key steps that I will detail below.
