Team 254 Store

[lynca]

great idea !
I got a shirt to celebrate the World Champs of FRC !

Can you say a few words about the process to setup an online store on your website ?

1. Are you locked in with one t-shirt company ?
2. Did you have to write any custom code to embed the store ?

I think having team online stores could be a great springboard for inventions and fundraising ...

How do you order?

Thanks

You have to be careful with this one if you are thinking about teams selling FRC related robot items. From the 2011 manual definition of VENDOR:

B. The VENDOR shall not be a “wholly owned subsidiary” of a team or collection of teams. While there may be some individuals affiliated with both a team and the VENDOR, the business and activities of the team and VENDOR must be completely separable.

Man, I wish more teams would (or could, I don't know how difficult this was to set up) do this. There are some awesome shirts out there that I would love to have, and as I can't make it to nationals very often and in MI we don't see outside teams, this is a cool way to get some cool shirts and help out other teams, as I assume whatever profit they make goes to the team.
