I am afraid there is not much Steven can do at this point.
The Foundation *needs* (in my humble opinion) to revise ASAP the merchandising agreements with the chapters so that those who used to produce and "sell" their own gadgets can do this again without this shipping madness which, by the way, does not seem very eco-friendly. Plus, chapters like the Italian one have a tradition in designing and printing beautiful stuff and should only be sustained in this, not blocked (again, my pov here).
