Are the agenda refills worth it?

[Lady001]

I finally ordered the desk agenda cover! Was waiting for months for it to be available! So now I was looking at refills for 2022 (the office weekly) and was wondering if it’s worth it? What are your experiences?

Ive bought already a few ones and they worked out perfectly for me. Of course you could get some cheaper ones from filofax for example but the Lv ones are really cute and the quality is nice

not worth it for me. i have loved my agenda gm for years and buy filofax inserts. just cannot justify the cost for paper goods. i do think the lv ones are very nice, but would rather allocate those funds elsewhere : )

If the paper was a tad thicker it would have been nicer. I am concerned about ink bleeding thru.

They are nice to have but way overpriced for the thin paper imo. But yes, I did buy some for 2022. I do find the layout option not great - if you’re a serious planner you can get heaps better inserts from cloth & Paper, Poi and Hun as well as 100’s of options on Etsy.

I've had my medium agenda for years, and always sucked it up and purchased the LV refills. I didn't even know you could buy generic refills elsewhere. Since I just bought the 2022 refill, I may have to check out the Filofax refill for 2023.

I bought the LV refills for years and they used to be great quality. I now buy either Filofax or WH Smith’s ones. The LV ones are now white instead of cream and gold and pretty childlike, I think

I think it's worth it. I got the PM refill and the desk agenda refills last year. This year I am doing the Hobo Cousins for the desk agenda and Cloth and Paper refills for the PM agenda. It seems to be the same price since I paid about 60 dollars for the PM refills at Cloth and Paper and for the Hobo Cousins, I had to pay 50 dollars shipping from Japan so it was pricey IMO. If you get the cheap refills online they don't look as good IMO.

Yes, they are worth it to me. I have the PM and uses daily agenda refill so I need to maximize the space. The paper is thin so fits well without getting too bulky and I never had any issues with ink bleeding with the pens I use.

I think they are worth it especially if you are using fountain pen but makes no difference if it’s just ballpoint pen. I love that LV paper is super thin. I wasn’t picky until I discovered Tomoe River paper early this year then I started noticing LV paper (although I’ve been using LV refill for more than 5 years) and went into Hermes paper. They are definitely worth it and I’ve switched to fountain pen.

I got LV inserts for my Filofax this year and loved them. I noticed however that 2022 planners were less pages so I queried it with LV what was missing and they said

“this year our refills no longer have the Folded Planning, nor the Monthly Overviews that previous years had. However, they include stickers and a new beautiful design each month.”

So for me, it was worth buying this year as the monthly overview was essential for me, but I won’t be buying 2022 and have actually already bought a lovely Filofax Confetti agenda set.

Ive been using filofax refills for years.... I bought the LV ones years ago but I think I was able to buy something that was like $30 a pop and that went awayI think so I gave up.. I use this for work, the weekly pages by filofax in the off white color are just fine, and actually more page style options to chose from that are more functional for me.

No, for less of the cost you can get custom inserts with thicker/better quality paper out there.

Not worth it for me. I like the layout of the Filofax ones better. At the end of the year, you’ll end up shredding it anyway.
