I'm looking to get a postman style Linnell bag for shoving clothes in to get to work (I've got no need for yet another rucksack) but they have a minimum 50 quid order. Anyone interested in one and want to pair up, or potentially if there are more, try to get a better discount for a group buy?

would love to but dont really like the bag, sorry
looks like a postman's bag
Looks piss poor quality to me.
It IS a postman's bag. They make them.
Get an ortlieb...job done.
..or find a friendly postman you can buy/steal one off - there seem to be an awful lot of non-postman riding around the area of London I work (EC1/EC2) with Royal Mail's finest bags over their shoulders.
If you order some I'd be interested to know how usable/stable they are on the bike, as I don't think they have the additional cross-strap that cycle courier bags do. I considered getting one a while back but didn't for that reason.
If you're riding any distance, then the extra strap is a must
Indeed. But depending on the strap attachment points it may be possible to retrofit something. It's a big bag with a proven reputation for little money, it'd be frustrating if it just didn't work at all 
Surely the postie bags are designed for easy access rather than riding comfort?
A few years back, I invested in a Crumpler. It's been excellent and despite daily use, still looks good as new(almost!)
I thought this, from the same company, looked a better messenger bg:

Yes, but it's huuuuge 700mm wide x 470mm height 
what are you carrying around, a dismembered body ?
