I am looking to see if anyone has ever set up a permanent online store for football apparel? I do not mean spirit pack or team stores that stay open and take orders for a 2-3 week "open" period, then go away once the deadline is up.
I want to try to set up something that can be up year round for people who want to be football apparel and if we can make a litle money off the top then perfect.
any help is appreciated

This could be a logistical nightmare for the production of goods...
I think there is a reason why the flash stores work - there is a timeline, it is fresh and hot right then and there, people want to get in on the action, easier to produce/print all the cloth at one time...
Might just want to reopen stores every so often but not let people know - make it a NEED to buy right now thought process... Last thing you want is for people to say they will just buy it later...
This is based on talking to may vendors from many different companies...

Use Big Cartel!
You cna set up the items up want. You can start small with 5 items, it does quantity check and once it runs out they can't purchase anymore to save you from having to reimburse them

Not sure if this helps, but I know here in KY, several of the dealers (most of which are small town sporting goods stores) set this up for you.
I know the one we went through for unis, spirit packs, etc we also went through for dang near everything else..so, the profit we made off gear through the online store just went to a store account there they set up to buy balls, paint, etc.
Worked great. Zero hassle. Might see if any out that way do the same thing?
Now...they did the 2-3 week window thing and would shut it down after those to "process the orders", but then it would open back up as many times as you wanted.
