Default Trade prices?

Is it just in my game or are the prices for the manufactured commodities much more stable in the new game?

Rum, Coats, Cloth and Cigars all stay in the 10-12 range for me (based on just one game with the Netherlands), while in the original game the prices dropped quickly if you produced a lot of one particular item and prices for, for example, Rum rose quite quickly when you didn't produce any Rum.

I'm about at turn 150:
I've not produced any Rum yet: price is 10/11
I've produced quite a lot of Coats (36 p/t), Cloth (30 p/t) and Cigars (24 p/t), and those prices are at 11/12, 10/11 and 12/13 respectively.

I wonder how the price for Silver (19/20) will respond to massive production. In the old game you could perhaps sell 200-300 silver for the top price, and then it started dropping rapidly as long as you kept selling...
