Does anyone have an idea where I cand get some info? They are really hard to get a hold of--I left a message, and am waiting for a call.

Thanks!

They called back. They won't be "out" for another 3 weeks. A 20 pg real leather album will be about 300 bucks, but the box it comes in can be designed with photos--sounds cool, if pricey.

Pricey is ok.. I need something to fill the gap between my AsukaBook offerings and my GraphiStudio offerings... for those brides who can't afford Graphi, but don't want Asuka....

Ditto on the Brad comments...

A slightly upclassed Asuka in leather may be a nice filler between the tiers...

I don't mind pricey, I was just suprised it was about $100 more for faux, and $200 more for real leather. That seems like a big jump.

They try to justify it with the snazzy box, I guess. Still haven't seen one (or photos of one).
