(This was a while ago.)
* I've had one elastic band break. They've sometimes been thinner and flimsier.
* Paper quality can vary.
* Several of my recent notebooks have had faulty stitching; one page has fallen out and several others are sort of oddly attached.

* The MiquelriusNotebook sucks, in [Brennen]'s opinion.

= discussion =
<[BrentNewhall]> Do you own a Moleskine, Bren? Just curious, since I've seen it mentioned here a couple of times.
<[Brennen]> I probably own about 14 by now. I've been using them as my main journal/idea notebooks since I got one for Christmas in (I think) 2001, so I was a relatively early convert. They're pretty much my only brand-loyalty, though I'd be happy to replace them with something cheaper if I found an option with the same or better features.
