I am not sure why Dansco stopped making this album. Are they going to start making them again? My local coin shops don't have any new or used ones. The used one's on ebay seem to be going for a lot. Just curious. |

Yes, it is supposed to be back. They are supposedly redesigning it, adding holes, pages, etc. ETA is unknown.  |

Thanks Jbuck. Since posting this I decided to find out directly from the horses mouth so I called Dansco directly. They do not have a website so I called the (323) telephone number. The person I spoke to said they are definitely coming out with a new album this year. She could not give me an exact date but said it will not be within the next month but she did say "it WILL be out in 2013." She said they made a lot of updates to it but wouldn't go into detail. So, I will hold off paying too much for an album off of ebay and will wait a few more months. |

It looks very official, but one part says "We sell 30% below retail" or something like that. I doubt Dansco would give that kind of discount just for buying online. Nice site anyways.

This isn't them? No, they are a dealer. Look at the first paragraph, " We are not The Dansco Corporation." |

I've heard and been waiting for years for Dansco to come out with a new or at least some of the same "7070" albums. They have said "soon, this year, updating, etc." They seem to work at their own pace. I'll believe it when I see it!!

Dansco seems like one of those companies that survive in spite of their best efforts to not survive. Why would they pull their old product (which seems perfectly fine and is obviously in demand) off the shelf over a year or more before the new one is ready? Who knows when this thing comes out? I will believe 2013 when I see it...

Only speculation, but they may have thought it would be ready sooner. They would want to minimize inventory of an obsolete product since it would not sell well after the new version came out. Regardless, they should have made a limited run of the current version once they realized the new design was delayed. |
