Abstracts

Consumers buying personal stationery have started to move away from established brands towards less expensive ones. In contrast with some sectors, such as watches or travel goods, in which saving can be effected by extending product life cycles or simply avoiding luxury items, in many circumstances the only way to save on stationery costs is to buy cheaper brands. A typical case is the school and student market, in which purchases can be neither postponed nor avoided.
