FIRST General Forum

I haven’t seen @BenHildy make a thread for this yet, so I decided to make a thread for shirt trading in 2019, Destination: Deep Space! I’m always looking for cool shirts, and from my experience, others are as well, so put your offers down below!

I myself am an alumni and volunteer now, but I have an assortment of shirts up for trade, with more coming in soon. I have access to any amount of 5740 shirts, and an assortment of other shirts which are listed here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gdxzD3HcaIM5cwoY2r9OCIkfJHkdxof6HjGMzJUn1rc/edit#gid=0

I’ll be attending Pittsburgh and Miami Valley Regionals as well as Houston Champs, and my wishlist currently includes 118, 148, 217, 254, 330, 359, 1678, 2046, 2403, 2614, 3512, 4028, 5308, 5453, 5839, and 5883, though I’m open to any and all offers, so PM me anything!

Good luck, and have fun trading!

I have some of our black and grey Power UP shirts, some of our yellow jerseys, a black 20th season hoodie, a medium 156 shirt, a medium 2017 world champions shirt.

I’m not sure exactly how people get into shirt trading…I’ve always been interested in trading shirts, my goal is to have a 254, 118, and 148, but i’m not sure how to even get started. It seems as though its only possible to get into this if your part of a successful team.

Not to bash my own team, but 2412 isn’t exactly a sought after shirt…So how do it get in? Plus, my team has only made it past districts once in 12 years… much less worlds… How do I get in contact with these teams?

Id love the advice! It’s my last year and I really want to get some shirts to remember my time by!

Here’s some advice I gave someone via DM:

Hi! I basically started where you are right now. Pretty much, in my second year, I saved up some money to buy a few extra team shirts, then at our events, went around asking friend teams to trade. Then, using that, I worked up, getting to where I am now - making connections, retrading shirts, and more. I’d advise getting a few extra shirts, then spending what free time you have at events making connections and trading with new friends!

Hmm…Too bad i’m only getting started in my senior year… Oh well. I suppose when I come back to mentor my team I will have opportunity then.

Thanks for the help!

I literally just shotgunned trades in 2017. i did like 11 pre-worlds, and when we qualified i made another 10 trades (and stuffed them all into the laptop bag) with teams there. I wasnt picky, and the “good” trades happened by as i went.

Now im at like 30 shirts and im not sure what to do with them…

But how do you interest people with a shirt that they don’t want?
