Try to use the Run Keyword and Return Status keyword. In this case what I normaly do is:

${CheckButon} Run Keyword and Return Status Element Should be Visible locator
IF ${CheckButon} == True
Comand 1
Comand 2
…
ELSE
Comand 1
END

Basically what joseiliton has provided is what you need to apply from the sounds of it… and you can make use of the Wait Until Element Is Visible or any of the other visible keywords

${chk_btn_is_visible}=   Run Keyword and Return Status   Wait Until Element Is Visible   //foo   
IF  ${chk_btn_is_visible}  
    No Operation      # YAY! Stock is premium.. do something 
ELSE
    No Operation      # BOO...! Stock is not premium.. do something 
END

or… as you’ve not really said if there’s a way to identify if a stock item is of type premium, you could do something like below:

IF  {stock_is_premium}
    Element Should Be Visible   //foo   Premium stock should show a check button, but the button doesn't show.  
ELSE
    Element Should Not Be Visible   //foo   None premium stock should not show the check button, but the button shows. 
END

Hard to gauge… really depends on your needs…
