2025 Shirt Trading Thread

Hello all and welcome to the 2025 FRC Trading thread!

Use CD DMs and/or the linked Discord to coordinate trading. For cleanliness and ease of navigation, please only make one post here with your links!

How to Stay YPP-Compliant

Every year, I look for ways to make shirt trading an even safer experience. The below policies are designed to remove any need for student/adult 1-on-1 interactions. Remember, there should never be 1-on-1 conversations between students and adults.

On Chief Delphi:

When you create a DM, click the flag on the bottom right of the message. This will automatically include a CD admin on DM. I like to include in my opening message that I’m looping admin in for YPP-compliance, just so everyone is on the same page.

On Discord

The discord server now has a ticketing bot to handle trading. To start a trade with someone, find the #open-a-ticket channel and click the “create ticket” button. This will automatically create a private channel on the server with yourself and the admins. Then, type /add [user] to pull in the person you are trading with. All messages are automatically logged. You can click “close ticket” when your trade is good to go.

At Competition

Conduct your trade in public spaces in view of others, like the stands. It’s also good practice to take a buddy with you. Never agree to meet up in private spaces like hotels, restaurants, or other places away from your team and event.

Have fun!

I don’t have an inventory created and I don’t need anything as trade, but I’ll have many t shirts and buttons from a variety of local and national teams to give away at 177/429’s pit this year at our events.

Any student or adult who wants one is free to swing by to grab what they’d like.

Teams include: MORT, RUSH, Spectrum, 359, 3310, Poofs, Stryke Force, etc

Other random items from 2007-2010 from teams like 217, 71.

I’ll be at NE Waterbury and NE Western New England University

I have no idea what events i’ll be at, depending on what happens with my job and commitment to FUN. I do know that I will be attending MSC Week 6, as I will be guaranteed to be in michigan at the time.
