I keep "almost" grabbing $300ish but every time they try to grab someone else already has them.

I'll have to try that too; too bad a majority of the comps. on campus don't allow me to install programs/ change connection settings in IE. oh well
 
Are there any scripts that work without proxomitron? The IT nazis at work got the browser working through their own proxy, so proxomitron is all but useless.

Proxo is useless and they won't share anyone who's just considering picking one up there's no way to do so anymore unless you want 4700 2.8ghz/512mb/80gb pos...
 
I'm willing to PAY for a script at this point, but not anything drastic $10 or so if someone is interested let me know.

Proxo isn't useless. Your success on Outlet depends on a few things:

1)How many unique session IDs you have refreshing
2)How fast those instances are refreshing (a combination of how fast your script is plus how fast your connection is)

Getting a system in the Outlet is not like running a race...it's more like being at the right place at the right time. So the more instances you have refreshing, the more chances you have of having your script add the items to the cart when they appear.

The reason it seems hopeless is because the odds are lottery-like. If there are a few dozen people with fast scripts, plus a few hundred with proxo scripts, plus a thousand who are simply hitting F5, then your chances of adding the item to the cart before any of those others is decidedly slim.
 
It does put it in...you need the link called "this" somewhere in one of Jpeyton threads. read back a few days
