“My review is based in part on the fact that I have a nearly identical item from another seller. I bought this because the leather and finish is far superior to the other one, but the knots in the elastic are a very poorly-considered solution. The knots are very disruptive aesthetically and functionally. The other one I have uses small metal “clamps” to terminate the elastic - a better, albeit not perfect solution. More thought needs to be put in to this. The paper is good quality, but a bit thin and light in weight.”
“I am very excited about paper republic! I love this journal: the size, the smell, the quality. I wish it came with an additional elastic to make me feel better about the price which is a little high, even though I get it with a product of this quality. Overall I’m extremely happy. I love this customer service. Just how they packaged and shipped my package spoke quality and product passion. Thank you!”
