Item smells and could not take out in public
We have ordered many of these over the years and recently ordered two of the purple ones again. We opened the first one that came in a separate shipment and it was putting off a very strong odor. We left it to air out and thought maybe it was just that one. The second one arrived a few days later and it also smelled. We ended up having to send them back. The odor was so...

Arc letter size customizable leather notebook system
Great notebook! The only downside is the smell it puts off. It smells like a skunk. I put it out in the direct sunlight for a couple of days and it diffused the smell.

I have use alcohol wipes, disinfect wipes men co...

A great organizer and it's PURPLE!
The Notebook made out of a nice quality letter is very striking soon as I took it out of the package I knew it was going to be something other people wanted. I added my calendar to it and now I have a customized calendar with some narrow lined paper in between for extra notes for each month. the system is a fantastic way to keep yourself organized.

Works well but terrible smell.
The ARC cover and discs and index tabs all work wonderfully. Everything works smoothly and everything feels so durable. I got an amazing deal and loved the price.To be fair though, the cover is definitely not leather as it has the most horrific smell imaginable. I looked online and it sounds like this is faux leather, and the smell should dissipate within a month or so....

It stinks
Literally smells rank. Hoping that after it airs out it’ll be okay. Otherwise I guess I’ll have to return. It looks nice.

My Purple Organizer!
I love my organizer so much, I brought two! I originally brought it because it was purple but then I saw how I can get organized with the different pages that the ARC system offers and I have five different projects in one notebook. I saw it on sale and brought another one. Love them!

Really like the look, structure and feel of the notebook; too difficult to find refills .... wish I could refill with regular paper ... it was the cover and binding that I really appreciated

Would not purchase in this color (purple) again, unless I physically went to a store....
Cons:
-SMELLS like a skunk sprayed it (has a large radius of impact)
-plastic binding
Pros:
-the organization system
-the color itself
I was very excited to receive my order, but the excitement quickly turned into regret and disappointment. It SMELLED exactly like those times where you are in a vehicle and you think you hit a skunk, but you are sure. All you know ...

Great binder but smells like a skunk!
I love this binder but it has an awful skunk smell that won't go away. It is embarrassing to bring to work and to home visits (I work in early intervention). I am considering returning the binder.

Nice, Durable, Customizable but Odor.....
Although the binder looked good and seems to meet my needs for durability and the ability to customize. It has a bad odor. I believe it may be the leather but it is not a pleasant smell at all.

great concept
I love the concept and functionality of the ARC system - easy to organize notes for multiple meetings and maintain a professional appearance. However, as many others stated the Purple leather has a very strong, unpleasant odor. I needed this for immediate use so I did not return it. I would give it 5 stars if not for the issue with the odor.
