Fair enough, Bill, but it's not just the wands. It's the plants and other ingredients Stephen needs for polyjuice, it's nutrition you lot need to survive long-term and it's anything else the Death Eaters don't particularly want you to have at your fingertips.
We'd need someone to train them in making the wands, too. I think old Ollivander at least sympathised with Dumbledore, but I got the impression he's no longer around. Isn't it his nephew or son or someone running the shop now? And it sounds as if you can't even get a decent wand from Wyndewood anymore, either - are they even in business still?
For that matter, what does it take to be a licenced wand seller? I wonder if it's worth flying through a few quidditch hoops to license Junius Ponds? Then we could import practically legally.
