I guess this would be up to the retailer, but it is not very likely, in our store, round about April time, Filofax count what diaries we have left, this then gets credited to us as a discount of the next years order, meaning there is never a loss to the retailer for marking them down, as we get full price credit.

The difference is the duration of the trip, and if air travel is involved. In those cases if I plan to be away more than a week, I will pack a cheap binder with the extra sheets I might need in my checked baggage. With the airlines propensity of losing things, I am not about to entrust them with one of my good Filos.
