Without the proper Apple logo on the first two pillows, it looks cheap. It doesn't do it for me.

I get the legal ramifications...which I'm surprised he's getting away with the happy Mac face pillow.

One day I'd love to find out what complexity of law prevents US companies from shipping free items internationally, and why such complexities only occur for certain companies, yet others like dbrand have no such complexities other than "live somewhere we can ship to, k?"
They (Understandably) don’t want to put time into checking each countries‘ laws regarding giveaways and competions so it just gets restricted. Some places just take the risk that they won’t fall foul of laws OR allow the winner to fall foul of laws. It can get complicated, for example here in the UK, giveaway and competition laws are different in Northern Ireland to England, Scotland and Wales.

On a similar note there’s also some places you just wouldn’t ship to because there’s a high chance of the package going missing and the winner saying they haven’t recieved it.
