The problem is how you define the "acceptable" goods.
If I design a t-shirt, and then farm out the manufacturing and shipping, is that okay? How about if I also hire a designer?
What if I'm just clicking "go" on a laser cutter etching things onto other things that I ordered on aliexpress? Or 3D printing designs that I bought somewhere else?
