Do you have awesome stuff for your bot? Sell it at one of our events! |
|||
[[Category:Information]] |
|||
==Selling at our merch booth== |
|||
[[File:Nhrl merch.jpg|thumb|Our merch booth, from September 2021]] |
|||
We have a merch booth near the entrance of our facility where we sell both official NHRL-branded items, as well as items from competitors. |
|||
We are happy to sell your bot's merchandise at our merch booth! Here's how it works: |
|||
We will only sell "souvenir"-style merchandise, like clothing, stickers, magnets, and so on. We do not sell bot parts at the merch booth. |
|||
We reserve the right to not sell any item for any reason. If you're worried about this, [mailto:merch@nhrl.io email us] to discuss the item you're concerned about. |
|||
===Sending us merch to sell=== |
|||
When packing your merch, make sure different designs and sizes are separated well. For example, put all M shirts of one design in a bag, L shirts of that design in a second bag, and XL shirts of that design in a third bag, seal the bags with tape, and pack them into a shipping box. If you have another design, do the same thing, putting all the different sizes in different sealed bags, and so on. |
|||
If what you're sending doesn't have sizes, like stickers or magnets, you can put each design in its own separate bag. |
|||
Then, [mailto:merch@nhrl.io email us] with your PayPal email address, as well as a list of everything you're sending. If you don't have a PayPal address, let us know and we can work out an alternate payment method. |
|||
In the list of items you're sending, for each type of item, let us know... |
|||
* Name of item |
|||
* Size (if necessary) |
|||
* Quantity |
|||
* Price we will sell at, in USD. (Note that you will collect 90% of this amount for each sale; we keep 10% to cover transaction fees and administrative costs.) |
|||
Ship your merch to: |
|||
<blockquote>NHRL Merch<br /> |
|||
50 Day Street<br /> |
|||
Norwalk, CT 06854</blockquote> |
|||
We should receive your item 40 hours (a day and a half) before the start of competition. So if you want something sold on a Saturday event that starts at 10 am Eastern, it should arrive by 6 pm Eastern on Thursday. |
|||
If your items do not arrive in time, we never receive item information, and/or your items aren't separated by design and style, we will make our best effort to make the items available, but we cannot make any guarantees. |
|||
===After the event=== |
|||
Once the event is over, you may collect any unsold merch from the booth. If you don't collect it, we will keep it for the next event. |
|||
A few days after the event, we will send you the amount of money your items sold for via the PayPal address you gave us, minus 10% to cover credit card and administrative costs. |
|||
==Selling outside the merch booth== |
|||
If you don't want to sell items at the merch booth, you may sell at your pit table, with the following caveats: |
|||
* You must handle all payments yourself. |
|||
* You may only sell in the pit area. You may not sell anywhere else, including the spectator space. |
|||
* We reserve the right to stop any of your sales for any reason. |
|||
* You may not sell anything illegal. |
|||
* You may not sell anything that will burn the building down. |
|||
You may sell bot parts this way. Note that this does not indicate an endorsement by Havoc Robotics of any bot parts sold in the pits. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caveat_emptor Caveat emptor!] |
|||
These rules are subject to change in the future. |
