Filofax Sale (CLOSED)

WARNING: PHOTO HEAVY POST!

Hello, hello, hello... I know, I know, I know... It's been too long since I wrote a blog post but I have been pre-occupated with life itself so... I'm sorry...

Now going to the topic of this blog post... YES... I am selling 2 (two) of my beloved Filofax's...
WHY? You will probably be asking yourself... Since it's been so hard to get my babies... Well... The answer it's not going to be something out of this world: I need the money... There... I've said it... Happy now?

Just so you know, this 2 babies will be going in different ways... What does that mean? One will go with a Filofax box and the other not, simple, right? LOL

I made a very good research about the prices of this Filofax's in the NEW situation... Of course this are not exactly brand new organizers so I can't charge the price that a new one is... So... This is how it's going to go... You pic one of the binders and it will come with a set of tab dividers just like any other Filofax, a fly leaf and a refill dating September to December 2013 that you will pic from the ones that I post here...

NOTE: Shipping it $16 to the US and $22 to UK... Not included in the Price!

PERSONAL CHOCOLATE ASTON

$60
SOLD

PERSONAL ZIPPED WINE HOLBORN

$70
SOLD

Frustrated

This post is a way to get out my frustration because of the current price of the Aston at the Filofax USA website.

Most of you readers out there know that I'm saving for that planner from the hand of Linda, she will sell me her Chocolate Aston in Personal Size for that same price... 50 US Dollars... And now the Filofax USA have a HUGE 60% sale on the items that were on sale for the past weeks and one of those is the Aston in personal size.

Why am I so frustrated and upset? Because I have the dam money but I can't buy it because it will mean that I'm touching my life/inheritated money from my aunt, that I promised I wouldn't touch for this particular purchase. If I didn't said that I will save that money for emergencies, I already buy and ship the Aston from Linda with no problema what so ever... But I can't...

There is always the alternative... to use it and then save to replace it but... my head it's split and will make me mad before I reach any choise. Since this is a post to rant about it I will be explaining a little bit more about this situation for those of you that want to read it.

With the shipping and stuff the Aston will be 80 US Dollars easily, buy it from Linda of Filofax in this particular moment it's the same money or a few bucks less because of the shipping weight but that money... I never in my right mind would have expend that kind of money on a binder or planner in my life...

This will be like a BIG, HUGE, spoiled, childlish craving for a planner and I already have my Violet Domino's and my Malden... and the brown one that I found at my aunt's department... So why on earth do I want another organizer? And to be honest I'm not a big planner person... to be more honest, my life looks like a tornado have gone thru and everything it's always upside down... so why?? Bite me! I don't know!

Money it's really tight at home right now. The account of my parents it's in red and they had to make a loan to cover that deficit. Honestly making a purchase like this, at this particular time it's from a crazy person... or in any time with me not working, my parents with this problems and still trying to make us have a nice vacations in a week because they know that once I start working again I won't be able to travel with them anymore.

I want it... For my life that I want it... But I can't have it... It's worst than the time that I posted my video about the Ultra Violet Domino that Jayne so kindly send it to me and that I love with all my heart. Because this time around I did find a way to buy online, but the amount of money... *sigh* If I ever decide to buy it with this sale... I don't know what would be happening... but sure as anything that my brother and parents will be screaming at me for being so thoughtless and irresponsible with my money...

This is enough I guess... My idea was to let everything out and I did, not all of it because there are some stuff that I can't share for personal reasons that involve my parents... I know this won't stop me from going every day to the website and look, sigh and stroke the screen... but it will help to know why I have to restraint myself...

And if this don't cut it... I didn't buy the Day Timer organizer for 12,99 US Dollars, washi tape or other stuff because I still have to use my money for some post office trips that I have been waiting to do so... For a good reason I'm not buying my Aston... or any other binder... right?

Saving for a Filofax!!

Hello again to all of you around the world.

This post is to talk about a Filofax fixation that I have on one Filofax in particular... I almost made two posts like this but I decided that I love this one the most (for now)

The Aston

Since the day I saw this model on a video in the Orchid color I was in love. Love at first site!
I want it so badly but I'm also a person that takes care of her money because I don't work and even when I know I can get the money from my savings I don't want to touch it... *scratch herself not to* Because I know I would need that money for other things and it's the money that my aunt left me when she died last year, and I promise myself and her that I would be wise in the use of it... *snif snif*

Don't get me wrong, please. I love my Domino's and my Mini Malden but this is my ultimate goal Filofax (for now). I was going after the Holborn or the Cuban but this... this is like... heaven opens for me when I see it online... And weird as may sound I rather have it in Chocolate Brown or Mushroom color... *sigh*

A Filofriend (Linda) has a Chocolate Brown Aston and I said I want it because I do. She gave me her prize  and for me it's fine, perfect... But I can't touch my savings and with this holiday on top I had to use some of my money to get my mom and dad some presents and I need to save again for it *sigh again*

Things would be so much easier if I just could take the money and use it for something else but I know myself and since I'm not working right now I need to take care of that money more than ever. That's why I always going to be gratefull to Jayne, because she send me my babies and I do have something for her... I'm just waiting for the holidays to go by and I can send it to her without so mucho worried about the mail, because we all know that in this time of the year, it's crazy.

So here I am... One of my yearly goals it's going to be: Saving for the Aston Filofax and not buy anything, if I can get a chance, that is not this binder.

I do want other models, like an orange Graphic or an orange Metropol or a Wine Holborn... but this makes me scratch myself over and over again. The Orchid color it's gorgeous but I have seen so many videos about them that I want to see one or two in a different color and maybe one of those videos would be mine.

The Flickr account of the first picture has more about the Aston but in the black color, wich is really nice color too (n.n)
