I'm sure it will only get worse as the day goes on. Wonder if the file is pdf and can be downloaded? Then I wonder if anyone's downloaded and can just share the file?
Good luck. I am giving up (again this year) as I don't have another hour to spend waiting until I can log in. It's already been an hour.
Sadly, SU does this same trick every year - issues all of the retired lists at the same time so the website stops working.
The last three years I've not gotten a single item I've wanted because of the failed website. By the time I got into the website, all the items I want are gone for good...until they appeared in the clearance rack!

I had six things in my bag, now they're gone and I can't even get signed on - what the...?! This is beyond ridiculous! Maybe I don't really need them, after all...
I am happy that out of my 12 current sets only 3 are retiring.

Sorry for the poor quality, it was sent to me like this but at least you can see the list and not wait on the website. Good luck!!!!
Thanks for this, Barney! I can't get the site to load so I have printed off this list and will mark it up with my wish list. Then I can be prepared to order when I try again later today if I find anything I need.
I order through my demo and not online so I hadn't thought about them being sold out so quickly of things. I only went on to see what was retiring so I could let my demo know if I wanted something. Good thing I don't because by the time she would get around to ordering it would all be out of stock anyway.
I got on the website at 11pm my time (Pacific). Only thing I'm interested in is the small oval punch and I'm probably too late for the 12 by 12 Crumb Cake cs. Briefly here's what I noted is retiring from the accessories:
-99% of the colored individual markers. I use reinkers and replace the tips as needed.
-same with the 12 by 12 cs. All but black and white and I think Real Red are staying.
-all the chevron ribbon and they're changing up the 2014-16 InColor ribbons. They did that last year too.
-The black Memento ink killed off their always problematic Basic Black as well as Basic Grey. Never had either one. Did get the Basic Grey refill for the marker and it made the biggest mess ever!
-Sticky Strip sales dropped due to Fast Fuse.
-the heart framlits are the older, straighter sided shape, so they probably have a new shape coming out.
-Top Note die and a couple of similar Framelits getting replaced with new Framelit shapes.
The list wasn't as jaw-dropping as I thought, but I've decided that nothing is sacred with SU any more. :???:

If anyone else likes to mark their catalog with what has retired, here is a list by catalog page number I created. I have removed duplicates of sets in different materials (wood, clear). If a set is retired, all forms are. I also didn't list the bundles that were retiring. If one of the items in a bundle is retired, so is the bundle.
