I have a ton of Moleskine notebooks because I value the quality. I have 5 or so filled with class notes, another one as my design sketchbook, and another to practice my daily drawing. They stay in much better shape and for longer than almost every other cheap notebook I've ever purchased. The Moleskine pages are bound more securely, the paper is of a thicker and higher quality. I've had my sketchbook for about 2 years now. I stuff it in my backpack, fold it open, toss it on my desk, etc. It gets a lot of use and holds up really well, which is certainly not something I've seen with the FiveStar or other notebooks you can buy at Staples for $3 or less.
