I emailed Jenny about offering a discount if we placed a group order. She would like to know how many people are interested before giving me the discount amount. Also, she will ship directly to each person instead of drop shipping them to one person who would then have to re-ship them out. You would also pay her directly. Please let me know by the end of the day so I can send her a total.
UPDATE: Jenny is offering a $10 discount code (lotsoftotes) with free shipping to the US. I was hoping we could get more of a discount but will be happy to use this
2nd update: She says the most she can offer is $15 off. If anyone is interested, let me know and she'll provide a new code. Sorry ladies.
3rd update: coupon code for $15 off is "lotsoftotes15"
I bought mine the night cransplash posted her review. It's pretty much amazing! That's all I have to add
Glad the review was helpful. I was going to update on the bag... so...
The bag has been great. I love love the structured bottom, the leather is beautiful, and it has held up well. I was never one to use a tote (always felt like it would be the "black hole"), but I've been using it every day since I got it! It fits a lot, and looked great with all outfits. The straps are flat, which make it easy to stay on your shoulder (and not fall off- so annoying.)
I will say that I don't carry anything too heavy (not used as a work bag), other than my wallet, iphone and keys (both of which I put into the pocket), cosmetics pouch, and my iPad. I'll also add a scarf or cardigan if I need to, and it's great to run errands in since I can just put my shopping items right into my tote. I use it as my "every day" bag now (also change it up a bit b/w my MZW and Madewell Kensington.)
If you are looking to add heavy items on it, I'm going to tag jchokie79 as I believe she not only commutes but also occasionally carries around her work laptop and other files in there. She may be able to provide some feedback on this.
Overall though, I love it and surprised how much I've used it and continue to wear it.

Hi! Mostly just a lurker here but I would definitely be interested depending on how much the final cost is. Any idea how this will work? Will Whipping Post send us individual invoices and can we pay via their website? thanks!

I'll finalize the details with Jenny once we have a number. I would rather everyone just pay her directly whether she wants to invoice us or offer a discount code. I'll fill you all in as soon as I hear back.

You guys will love it! I was just linking the tote for a friend today and saw that it's on backorder 2-3 weeks. Looks like it's really taking off!
Here's mine, since I use it as a work tote, I have my beast of a laptop in there. I was worried about carrying my laptop around in it before I got it but now that I've been using it, it's super sturdy and I love it.

jchokie79- Love this pic with laptop....thanks for sharing! I will probably use it for work also. Question- does it feel heavy on your shoulders carrying a beast laptop? Mine is kind of large as well so just curious.

The bag weights virtually nothing so all the weight I do feel I carry is from the laptop and the other stuff. So while it's definitely heavy, the bag itself does not add weight to it.
I just did a blog post about the bag amongst other things, if you want to see a few more pics.
