Thanks for the report (included below).
Nobody here at bug-gnu-emacs at gnu.org can do anything about shop.fsf.org.
The best I can do is forward your report to sales at fsf.org.

For context, the link:

https://shop.fsf.org/product/emacs-manual

appears in Emacs documentation and release announcements.

If the manual is out of print (?), it would be good for this page
to redirect to a page that says so, rather than a 403 forbidden error
like it does now. Thanks.
