The sticker on the spine is impossible to remove cleanly

The binder itself is fine if a little flimsy in the rings. But my complaint is that the adhesive used for the sticker on the spine is IMPOSSIBLE to remove. I tried peeling the sticker. Tried warming it slightly. Tried rubbing with various cloths. Tried soap. No dice. I still have an ugly sticky residue on the bind that picks up lint and is gummy to the touch. This is a fundamental problem for a product like this.
The binder itself was great but I have a question. Why would Staples use stickers that do not remove easily on their binders? The sticker that was on the spine of the binder was so hard to remove that I ended up cutting it off all together. I was glad my boss was only going to use the front pocket to put a title on the binder and not the spine.
