I went through mine and counted only six current sets left, plus seven possible sets from the mini catalogs. So now I'm curious, how many do you have left?
I have 54 left (a lot of these are sentiment, BG and alphabets). I am seriously out of florals. I guess this will force me to use my Heartfelt Thanks again. Hopefully, they will give us an awesome floral stamp set at convention.
I Have 15 stamps sets , 5 background stamps, 2 sayings. no alphabets left.
8 small wheels, 4 large wheels. This is so sad.
I lost 32 sets that are being retired. 2 BG, 2 LARGE WHEEL, 9 SMALL WHEELS. 2 ALPHABET SETS.

I am going to have to go count. I don't think I have many left, probably less than 10. I guess it does not matter too much since I am not a demo and can use whatever I want. What hurts me the most are the background stamps. They retired a bunch last year, so I bought some new ones this year and they retired more. I can't keep buying them - they are expensive.

You have sets left after the list?! LOL! Ok, I'm not sure how much I have left but I lost 61. As a new Demo since February, this particular retirement list was brutal for me. I will have very very few left....maybe 5......and like 2 wheels.

I have 11 sets that are current. 14 sets that retired. I was thinking of signing up, but boy am I glad I did'nt. I would not be able to afford to replace these retired sets. I feel so bad for demos. Many have lost a huge amount of sets due to this retirement.

I have 23 with BG & Wheels, I have numerous sets I use just don't demo them. I don't sell the old ones but haven't been at this near as long as some of you I am sure. Jean

Wow! I heard there were only 120 sets remaining in the current catalog! That means you have nearly half of what's going to remain current! Gosh, I would love to come stamp at your place! Kee kee.
I have 3 alphabets, 3 background stamps & 8 sets that will still be current - total of 14! But one of them is bodacious bouquet, which is on the dormant list....won't know if that'll last into the Spring/Summer catalog.
I probably do not have many, but I have not kept track over the years. I am not a demo so I am not worried. I just hope the ideas keep getting added here for retired sets as well as new ones!
I have 20 current sets, three bgs, 5 alphas, and 4 from the minis that may become current. I lost 15 in this retirement (no bgs or alphas) and am super excited about getting my hands on the new IB&C July 1.
As I'm not a demo and don't get rid of retired sets until I'm tired of them myself, I don't really care. But my sympathy to all the demo's who're suffering on this one. Ouch!
I lost 80 (sets & wheels); I haven't counted what's left. One of my friends lost over 100!!!! Tough for beginning demonstrators who feel they have to "start over" again and worry that the sets they purchase will be retiring in the Jan 08 catalog. Holding my comments to see what's in the new catalog!!
Yes it is a good thing I did not sign up early as I had hoped too. I will wait until the new catalog comes out and get some current sets. That was a huge retired list.
I haven't counted and I'm not a demo so it doesn't matter. I think it would be nice if Stampin Up would release the retiring sets as soon as Sell a Bration is over. It's not fair that you don't have time to purchase retiring sets that you want. I have a stamp club every month, but I'm single and have only me to depend on so I can only afford about $30 a month....that doesn't buy all the sets I want but now I won't be able to get some of them.
How many current sets do you have left now?
