When designers go bad...

I was perusing the [Paperchase](http://www.paperchase.co.uk/) site today (looking for the very specific notebook I like to carry around) - this is a perfect example of design over function [take a look at it](http://www.paperchase.co.uk/), tell me why couldn't they just stick to a normal catalogue? Oh, and try to find a black bound a5 squared notebook which they definetly sell- I couldn't!
