Archiver's - closing

I received the sad email an hour ago that Archiver's is going out of business. I always wished there was one near me and I surely would have shopped there. Alas, the closest Archiver's to my house is a little over 4 hours away but I stopped in every time I went up there. What a shame.

I'm so bummed about this! I'm not a scrapbooker, but I bought all my paper there. Their paper was so much nicer than what the big box stores carry.

Archiver's has something called Archiver's Annex and it doesn't have any sale prices up. Maybe they're moving to a total online business?

This FAQ states the Annex will also close. The email I received is titled, "After 14 years - and countless memories - we're very sad to announce that Archiver's is going out of business." The letter goes on to say that the past 4-5 years have been hard on them due to the economy as well as new technology. I assume they mean digital scrapbooking. The letter states they will have all of their stores closed by mid-February and to watch email next week for store closing details. I wish I lived closer to an Archiver's. Not only would I have been a regular customer, but the FAQ says they'll be selling their store fixtures and I'd love to get my hands on some of those.

All of the Archivers? I thought it was just certain stores.

From the email I received and the FAQ on their website, I am led to believe it is all of the stores.
