I have the bucket bag. Yes, get your name on a pre-order list.

Mine is the drawstring bag in black with flamma interior. They scratch easily and the leather is very stiff. The bags are quite basic, no interior pockets. I do baby mine because I want to keep it nice. This type of leather will soften and look better over time, much like the old baseball glove leather coach had back in the 80's and 90's.

I love the bag, but am happy with one. I don't think I will buy another one, then again, never say never!
 
I looked at it, but didn't love it to be honest. Way too stiff. I like bucket bags that I can wear on my shoulder if need be. Big hard stiff bags while cute sitting on a shelf - I don't find attractive when someone is wearing them unless they are hand-carried. And the strap is long to totally hand-carry this bag - so it's a no go for me. I absolutely love the gorgeous pebbled leather of the J. McLaughlin bucket bags (and the colors - they are gorgeous!) - so that's my choice for bucket bags. They are really nice (see below).

Love the Champers bag in this collection!
 
My husband's cousin was fortunate enough to get her hands on a bucket bag. It looks so pretty in person but it does scratch pretty easily according to her. Since she has the black color I can't see the scratches unless I look closely. I'm waiting for the black flamma!

Thanks for the purse intro. The leather on the JM bag looks so soft! I'd have to see in person.
I've seen them in person and they are very nice...something to consider!
