Re: [FRC Blog] FIRST Choice 2017

I like how the quantities of some items actually increased, e.g., Mounting bracket (fc17-142) (started @ 1000).
Is there a trade-in program I overlooked? :-)

Re: [FRC Blog] FIRST Choice 2017

Looking at the priority list, it's incredible the amount of items out sold out for 2017. One that jumps out at me are the talon's. I'm glad we stocked up on them earlier in the summer.

I would say that talons were understandable. What I'm surprised about is that the core control system components haven't been marked sold out yet.

Apparently, the PDP and VRM both started out at 1,000 ct. and are down to 256 and 241. In comparison, the talons started out at 2500 and are sold out. I'm confused by it as well.

It's not that confusing. Let's say there were 700 teams that wanted all of the control system stuff. They all out the PDP's and VRM's on there at 1 each. They also put talons on their list at 4 each. 700x4 is more than 2500!. Due to the increased limit per team, they were bound to sell out.

Ours isn't up yet. Does it have full items that you received or just shipping charges?

Sorry, I was looking at last year's order. Didn't delete the post fast enough for you.

Are people able to view their priority lists? I don't see anywhere to view it on the FIRST Choice website.

You have to login as the creator to view it and you need the PL list number... should be formatted like 3XXXX where XXXX is your team number with leading zeros.

Code:
