Never mind. Sold out there too. I really wish October Afternoon would get it together and actually have enough product.

I heard from a store owner that OA isn't going to release that tape. Too bad, it's so cute!
ETA: Paper Issues is a great store to order from. And if you follow them on instagram they have discount codes occasionally.

The tapes are delayed...along with the brads. I have heard they are coming, but later.

Like you, I stumbled across this store when searching for images of the new OA Shop Front alphas (Early American, Red Wagon, & Mason Jar). I had never heard of it before & have no first-hand experience, but am interested in others' feedback. I heard from a store owner that OA isn't going to release that tape. Too bad, it's so cute! ETA: Paper Issues is a great store to order from. And if you follow them on instagram they have discount codes occasionally. This explains the reason both washi tapes were removed from the Saturday Mornings product line on OA website today. Wonder if the delayed brads & image rubber stamps are next? |

Darnit! Clever of you to notice, but darnit all the same. OA has become such an irritating tease.

Oh dear, I stand corrected...perhaps the washi tapes have been scrapped after all. OH well of course they are. How does OA stay in business? As to how they stay in business...well, a lot of people, myself included, find they consistently deliver the most innovative and interesting product lines to market. They may be fewer and farther between, but when their product comes out, it is stellar. People have been predicting the demise of OA for years. Their business practices are definitely not the best, but I don't care, I buy what they put out. This is not life saving medical equipment (some may argue with me here, lol) it is paper, people. i am just happy to get things that I like. Saturday Mornings was probably somewhat rushed and they couldn't get the tape done in time so it was scrapped. Or maybe there were production issues, who knows. At least they didn't bring out an inferior product. AC has been doing that lately and it annoys me to no end. Now please excuse me while I go obsess over which vintage line of OA to NEED next. I have heard whispers that next month is supposedly when Treasure Map will launch...who knows if it will, but it is something to keep an eye out for. |

That does not excuse poor business practice. OA consistently is late on releases (how low have they been talking about Treasure Map? A year? What about Travel Girl? that was a good year people were waiting for it) and their release a line not only "late" but incomplete. I rarely like their product but the Saturday Morning line would have been perfect for my son's upcoming pancake birthday party. No worries. It is just paper. Another company will fill my needs, I am sure. |

I guess I was trying to make light of it as everyone knows OA is a bit flaky. We have no idea why the tape was cut...maybe it didn't meet their quality standards, maybe it didn't come in time, who knows? I am pretty sure OA would prefer to have been able to offer it though. |

I have several friends that have ordered from Cassie at paper issues. They've never had any problems.

A bit late to the discussion, but I just placed my first order with Paper Issues last week. I received my order in just a few days, and it was wrapped with tissue paper and a ribbon - it felt like a present! Especially cool since it was my first scrapbook purchase in about 5 months.  LOVED the service, and would recommend them heartily. |

I have bought from them twice - once was last week. Both times I had a great experience. I would definitely recommend them.
