Review on 📔 Rhodia Webnotebook Orange 5 1/2 X 8 1/4: The Ultimate Writing Companion by Jami Harrison

I'm confused. I have purchased this item in the past and it was different, better in many ways. Observations: It used to say "Made in France" on the packaging, but now the country of origin is nowhere to be found. This is the most embarrassing. are they chinese The pouch used to have ribs of fabric; now they are paper. Cheaper option. Lines on paper used to be lighter, thinner. The softer the better. The logo embossing on the cover is dirtier, not as crisp - you can see the small TM symbol on the older version; The new one looks like a hole. Are these laptops worth the premium price? I do not think so. And that's disappointing. I think Rhodia couldn't compete with Moleskine, they had to cut costs, take production abroad and here we have a lower product.
