The Zazzle store has been operational for almost a year now.

Zazzle does a good job of selling in multiple currencies, but some
users prefer other, sometimes local, options.  The Board works with
other companies who also pay us a royalty and we don't have issues
with multiple stores, as long as they sign our trademark agreements
and we have a workable business relationship, which we do with
Freewear.

Getting some GNOME 3 stuff up is a good idea, the t-shirt contest
should be announced in the next day or two, and those will be added.
I'll ping Andreas as well.
