Re: FIRST Choice Items

I haven't see anything like this posted yet, so here is a list of the FIRST Choice items along with commercial prices I was able to find for the items.

The list isn't complete for a few reasons: Some items I couldn't find a price for, anywhere. Other items I could only find prices off ebay, which can be wildly variable, so I did not include those. I selected prices from "typical" FRC vendors if possible (others may have varying opinions on which vendors qualify as typical). Preference for listing was given to the part manufacturer's site, if price was listed. If multiple vendors had it listed at different prices, I tended toward the cheaper option.

If you have information on missing items, or a large price difference, I certainly would appreciate hearing about that. No consideration was given to shipping costs.

As always, decisions should be made with your team in mind. No one "best choice" list will exist.
