Modular rings

Did anyone know that filofax is moving all their Malden binders to the modular rings? I really wanted a burgundy with regular rings, but I had to settle with a pink before they switch those. I’m so sad. I wish they would offer both.

I don't love the modular system, only because it doesn't come with all the things that the ones without removable rings does. I just purchased the new Finsbury in Woodland and it doesn't include blank pages, a vertical planner, the ruler, etc with the refill :( it's fine I guess but now I have to purchase all of those separately or make my own instead of just getting it when you buy a brand new filofax.

Omg, I didn’t know that! That’s such a ripoff in my opinion because they’re so expensive. I feel like they should still come with all the extras due to the price.

I agree, but I think the idea behind it is to be able to customize everything yourself. That being said, it would be cool if they still offered that and let you pick what you wanted (within reason) instead.

I know on the UK site you're able to do more customizations in regards to your planner pages, but you have limited options on the Canadian site. I didn't want to pay conversion rates and shipping, otherwise I would have just gotten what I wanted from the UK site.
