I wasn’t even considering buying the plotter because $$$ but y’all got me convinced! It sounds like exactly what I need as I sit here with a dozen unfinished notebooks but a million scraps of paper that I hoard
Right?! It's sneeaky like that. Like we pointed out in the video, it's good enough (and more affordable) to start with just the Refill Memo Pads before you pull the trigger on the binder. Of course, there's other types of binders out there too, and you could see about making a similar system with one of those (like a slim Japanese style binder for example which *cough we also sell cough*), but it's like the whole PLOTTER ecosystem, they really considered all the details.
It's true about the price. It's like, if you are already using a binder system, and the PLOTTER binder is catching your attention, then yeah maybe consider the investment. But if you're not yet using a binder system, you could def try out a cheaper or used binder like Filofax or something online, and then use the PLOTTER refills in them, at least to see if it's a system you'll use before going full buy-in, you know? Good luck out there!
I’m so happy you have a RU-vid channel! I visited your store in December and fell in love with stationery! I can’t wait to see more of your videos 😊 also, you’re not nerds- you’re connoisseurs!
Heyy, glad you found us. =^) We're definitely more of a local favorite in Philly, so we're looking forward to meeting new people via our channel here. Have fun shopping!!
this is the video i've been waiting for about plotters. considering monk's perspective and overall setup for their binder, i think im going to finally pull the trigger lol. thank you for making this video and looking forward to more ✌
Very understandable. The leather binder is very nice, but you can definitely experience PLOTTER with just the refills and using a 2nd hand or inexpensive binder in the meantime.
I would say that defeats the point of PLOTTER on a fundamental level. The hardware is unique, and buying a binder just to experiment with hardware seems like a bit of a risk. However, there might already be ring binders out there online that can accommodate 15mm, and you can certainly then get PLOTTER refills to go in that.
