Possibly due to LOCOG/IOC licensing issues - if they were actively flogging them to the public they would have to be an official merchandising partner or similar. By just providing them at cost price to staff who are involved in producing the coverage they can probably get around that.

Shame us punters who pay the licence fee can't have a crack at getting these either?
Don't think they are that bothered. Ordered an item, entered my address, paid via PayPal and have had a dispatch email.
I WANT ONE! You think it's OK to order one?

I suppose the worst that could happen is they cancel your order.
