scrappinghappy I found a Youtube-review of these planners, and the web-adress for the planners are in the title. It's personal-planner.com I couldn't get in to their website, they are having some issues with their server being overworked according to their FB-page. Thank you for the web address. I'm able to access it now, and wow, I think that designing it could be half the fun! Here's the link to make things easier for U.S. Peas: Personal Planner

OK, I'm having way too much fun designing a notebook. Before I get too far into it though, OP do you know if they are reviewed as reputable? I'm asking because I've never ordered internationally before, and they say they'll ship in 3 weeks, and the price (reasonable!) includes shipping and handling to any country. Too good to be true?
I have a really busy day ahead and I don't have time to search for reviews of the company, so I thought I'd ask whether you know their general reputation.

I have a really busy day ahead and I don't have time to search for reviews of the company, so I thought I'd ask whether you know their general reputation. I can certainly vouch for them! My planners have arrived in the mail in less than two weeks, but I am in Norway, and they are based in Sweden, so it's just the neighboring country But I am always surprised at how quickly I recieve the planner. Until now, when the 'free' planner never showed up... But everyone I have ever talked to has this planner has nothing but good to say about them. Technically we are in a different country than the one the planners is being shipped from, so I guess this is an international order for me too! They are growing bigger every year, they regularly come out with new designs, and I love that you can have your own photo as a cover! Personally I wouldn't recommend the 'gold' prints that they have as one of the design options. Some gold dots, chevron and other gold patterns. They were more like a brown. Not goldfoil or anything, so it wasn't really that pretty. I have just ordered a new, small planner for my neice, who is spending the next schoolyear in England. Ordered it two nights ago, I'll let you know how quickly it arrives. And they have a FB-page, search for personal-planner and you will find their FB-page in English.

Rings som i filofax Strings som i midori Ah! I had a filofax for years, but after a while I found the pages too narrow, and the rings took up too much space. I like the spiralbound planner better. I feel I utilize the space better. But I do miss how you can take pages in and out of a filofax. Uff da indeed!!! Google det du også da! Gjør det! Gjør det!

I couldn't get in to their website, they are having some issues with their server being overworked according to their FB-page. It was probably the Refupeas overwhelming their site. And OP, no, not rude to request an update.

And OP, no, not rude to request an update. They have been overwhelmed for a few days now, I'm blaming all the people who need planners for the new schoolyear. But I guess I'm not doing them any favours sending all of these Refupeas there to add to the whelming

And I should have updated this thread, but forgot. I did send them an email telling them I haven't recieved it yet. And they sent me a new one, which I received that about 10 days later and I have already started using it I cannot express enough how happy I am with the products and the customer service of this small company! Great people! I got a new 10% off coupon too, if anyone is interested in it let me know

I'd love to order this planner but can't get past the 'Add On Page'. Plus it reverts back to Norwegian. Any suggestions on how to navigate through the process?
