I have found, online, Cartesio notebooks for sale at The Journal Shop.

I have never used this supplier nor used the notebooks.

Does any forum member have any experience of either? I have done a search of the forum for this brand but it came up with nothing.

I have just got some from The Journal Shop. Their service was excellent. The notebooks were ordered in the afternoon and arrived next day. Also, they have an offer that if you order three, you only pay for two, so the price is very competitive.

The notebooks themselves are great, the paper is much better than I have experienced in the Moleskine books that I have tried, with no bleed through or feathering.

They have a slightly flexible but still fairly stiff leather cover. Initially they didn't lie as flat as a Moleskine, but that is improving with use.

I would definitely order from The Journal Shop again and will be ordering more of the Cartesio notebooks as well. For me, they are an excellent alternative to Moleskine.

I would agree, The Journalshop is a great site. I use them them to get my CIAK notebooks but will try a Cartesio.The site is the place to go for quality journals in the u.k but www.writeonme.com is good too.

Been using the Cartesio for a while now and can confirm it s far better than a Moleskine.

Both the journalshop and the notebooks themselves are excellent. Go for it.

Both jounal shop and cartesio notebooks are excellent: go for it.

How's the paper in the Cartesio.

InTempo make this and the Ciak, and I really don't like the Ciak's paper.

Are they the same?
