bilby commented on the word end cap
"While many stores reckon eye-level is the top spot, some think a little higher is better. Others charge more for goods placed on end caps—displays at the end of the aisles which they reckon to have the greatest visibility (although some experts say it all depends on the direction in which people gyrate around a store—and opinion on that is also divided). To be on the right-hand-side of an eye-level selection is often considered the very best place, because most people are right-handed and most people’s eyes drift rightwards."
