The effects of “free shipping” at work. Shipping is built into the price.

Well the french flag is double featured, you can fold it inside out to get a surrender flag.

It's just economies of scale. Obviously more Dutch people buy pillows making it cheaper to turn them 90 degrees.

The reason the french flag is more expensive is the same that makes womens products more expensive. Gender pricing is not discimination.

Do you think maybe its because its more difficult to make the pattern vertically than horizontally

It makes perfect sense. In America, we can charge $9.99 for something that used to be $5. It sells better because it ends in 9 now.

it does if they can sell a the same pillow the a bigger demographic and increase price why not?

It's actually way more expensive to print stripes vertically. The machines have to be totally recalibrated.

The answer is simple. The dutch are traders. We make good deals. (See most of dutch history) plus a few arguably bad ones... (See New York)

Whomever was on the other end of a lot of those deals didn't think they were so good

I'd say New York was a good deal as well. We wouldn't have been able to hold on to it long term isolated and surrounded by large British and

The Indonesian influence on Dutch food is a plus, at least.

That's quite unrelated to Suriname or New York though.
