Default Retiring products?

Can anyone explain why the Basic Black, Basic Gray, and Sahara Sand, and in both sizes are on the Last chance list?

Also on the list is the assorted neutrals pack...I can understand this one, since the arrangement of neutrals will change and they would change the colors in the pack. And the kraft is there...but it is changing name, so that is understandable as well.

But does this mean that we won't be able to get individual packs of Black, Gray, and Sand? Or some other option? Any answers?

Hi Diane -
someone may have a more complete answer than I do... but here's what I know... on our list these colors have an * next to them. This means that they are on the list because they are being reconfigured. Not sure how we are reconfiguring:-) I would think that we would be able to order these individually. If I hear anything else, I'll come back and do an update.
Someone else may update in the meantime, though!

A massive color renovation, which includes massive color retirements. I attached the two PDF's that list the retiring colors and list the new color groupings. Truthfully, I am totally excited about the changes!

I'm guessing they're changing how many sheets will be in a package...

A few other returning colours are also on the Last Chance list. They seem to all be the 12 X 12. Maybe that size paper will only be available in the new caddy as assortment packs??

They are changing how our paper is packaged for most of the colors and sizes. So that's why some of the returning colors are listed.

I hope not - they made that mistake before and it blew up in their faces. There was a huge outcry when they did that the last time and they brought them back because of it. I'm hoping it's just a repackaging thing.

I heard that the cardstock is being re-packaged so that it's going to be half smooth cardstock half textured cardstock :(

I am wondering the same thing. The 8.5x11 of Sahara Sand does NOT have a little * by it. That is what is confusing me. It (along with Black and Grey) are going to be "core colors". If they are just "reconfiguring" the packs wouldn't it have the * by it??
