You have 1 of the meta tags correct, but it has the values of the keywords instead of the description. replace the keywords with the description of the first meta tag. Heres a comparison of your code and what its supposed to be.

//This is your code
  <meta description="description" content="Shirts and hats for fans of Star Wars,"/>
  <meta name="description" Content="boba fett shirts,shirts and hats for fans of star wars.">

//These are the codes you are looking for, the meta is strong with this one
  <meta name="description" content="Shirts and hats for fans of Stars Wars">
  <meta name="keywords" content="boba fett shirts,shirts and hats for fans of star wars.">

I hope this helps!

Mike.
