Been buying Parts from Mouser for a long long time, I have not noticed labels fading. I have some packages in there that are 5 or 6 years old maybe some older they do not seem faded. Now I have gotten a few here and there that did not seem to print good like the printer was about out of ink but normally they are very readable and have not notice a fading problem with them.
