Authenticity check?

Is this real? No tag inside but I know some of the earlier ones don’t have. The logo is stitched but glued onto the bag but overall is feels really high quality and sturdy.

Ty!

Catch & Release...did I make a mistake leaving it behind?

I found this dooney while thrifting for $55...I left it behind because it seemed overpriced, but now I'm second guessing myself...good condition, but some deep scratches on the back. Inside looked clean tho. What would you have done?

The Stanwich Satchel

Good afternoon my fine friends.

I am, unfortunately, obsessed with the Stanwich satchel that Dooney put out and I know they no longer make them. Specifically I am looking for the Florentine and Toledo versions. I have done a TON of research over the last few days trying to narrow down information on these bags. Mostly so I can look into resale sites and see if I can find any. I would love any information you might have or places that I can go to find out dates and colors.

I went through Purseforum and found some great information that I didn't know regarding the Florentine vs. the Toledo Stanwich Satchels:

- The Toledo satchels have the bag color as the whipstich on the handle

- The Florentine has the matching Brown Tmoro as the whipstich

- There was also a pebbled leather version of the Stanwich that came out later than the first ones (I believe)

I watched a few QVC ads and got more information about the colors.

Verified colors (from QVC Source):

Colors Toledo Winged Satchels:

  • Royal Blue 
  • Black
  • Chestnut
  • Yellow
  • Turquoise
  • Natural
  • Winter fuchsia

Stanwich Satchel (Pebbled Leather):

  • Slate
  • Black
  • Brown Tmoro
  • Midnight Blue

If anyone has bags that they can show or tags! Or any videos or listings just so I can keep compiling information, I would greatly appreciate it. It's become sort of my hyper fixation. HEH.

I will also likely be cross posting this on FB for more help!

Thank you everyone! Love being apart of such a helpful community of bag enthusiasts!

NWT Suede Drawstring Bucket Bag

I have too many bags and don't seem to really reach for the bucket bag style. This is an incredibly beautiful bag. Still has that new smell to it! I have the original dust bag as well. It has been stored lightly stuffed to preserve the shape.

I have excellent feedback on Facebook marketplace where I have this listed, as well as buying and selling feedback on my profile here on reading. If you have any questions please, feel free to ask! I would love her to find a new home!

$1️⃣7️⃣5️⃣ plus shipping. I can provide tracking information immediately after packaging it up. I do ship within 24 hours and always add insurance.

Help with legitimacy of bag

Hi all,

I recently purchased this bag from a consignment store and, after looking at it more closely, I’m questioning whether it’s authentic.

The store told me they take authentication seriously and verify items before selling them, but a few things are making me unsure. I don’t see any interior tag, and the logo/stitching looks off to me — especially because the logo does not appear to be stitched fully through.

I really like the bag and would love to keep it, but I also don’t want to have overpaid if it turns out to be fake. I’m not an expert, so I’d really appreciate any input from people who know more about authenticating these bags.

Does anything about this look concerning, or are these features normal for this style/era?

BOTD!

I’m moving out of my brand new Marc Jacob’s large scene bag into this new to me old medium sized Florentine satchel. Got her for a great price, she didn’t come with a crossbody so I just stole the one from my black/black Cameron 😂

Star Wars Dooney!

I’m not even that much of a Star Wars fan, but I loved this idea, and a Star Wars Dooney is always going to be cool!

Catch & Release of this Geranium Satchel

UPDATE: SOLD, as much as you ladies tried to convince me to keep her (which I appreciate) I feel better knowing she’ll go to someone who loves her more

I recently purchased this STUNNING bag from a D&B FB group and as beautiful as she is I can’t hold on to her. I fear I’ll never use her and I would much rather her go to someone else who is interested instead of sitting in my closet.

From a smoke free/pet free home and measures 15” L, 9” H and 6” W.

Just hoping make back what I paid so asking $280 but I’ll link my Poshmark below for anyone interested (I listed it much higher there as Poshmark takes a sizable amount and would just much rather sell via PayPal Goods & Services)

I got this pretty little thing for about $40.
Does anyone have any tips to clean her up so I don’t damage it? Small blemish on 2nd pic.

Ostrich Twist Strap Hobo in Fuchsia

Just received this from ILD. Was not sure about the size at first, seemed too tall. I extended the strap to the maximum, wasn’t easy on the fingers, but took only maybe 4-5 minutes and it’s secure. Also once I filled the bag the top now naturally folds like in the picture. Got the Ostrich Large Framed Purse in Fuchsia to match, and it’s darling.** **Color was chosen for Breast Cancer and seemed to be out in other shoulder styles that could have worked.
Charm is custom Pin for Love Labubu G.

First! Thrifted for $20

My very first Dooney and Bourke. I’ve seen a decent amount at my local Goodwill here and there but the prices have been “high”. That is, until I came across this one today for only $19.99. It has seen better days and needs a good scrub but I have all the right leather care for that! Excited to get it polished and take it out for a spin.

The ILoveDooney Site Is Making Me Crazy!

Yeah. I think I'm done. I check the I Love Dooney site near-daily trying to find a good deal on a bag. I'm pretty flexible--I want a satchel and I don't want to pay $400 for it because that's nuts. I used to collect Dooney bags back in 2020 and they were less than half that. I've had my eye on a Sorrento 30, which is a satchel. Here's the experience I've been having trying to buy ONE bag:

Every morning they have ONE SINGLE Sorrento 30 in Fuchsia, and then by the time I put it in my cart it is gone. I do this at 4:30am because that's when I get up. Anyway--this morning there appeared to be several colors, and the price on the main page said $139 - $398. Not a single color was $139. Ok. So pass on that then.

So I get back online later when I have a moment--just now--and find this satchel. Note the number of colors and the price in the first pic. That's the main Clearance tab page. But when you click on it (photo 2) there one color, that color wasn't in the initial list, the price is different, AND IT SAYS BOTH IN STOCK AND SOLD OUT AT THE SAME TIME.

I feel like I'm losing my mind. But I think I'm done with Dooney. This shopping experience is ridiculous.

Anyone else noticing this?

Oh--and then I see people on social media saying oh I got this on sale and with a coupon code. HOW? There are no working coupon codes anymore. BLARG!

Sorry, I get this is a first world problem, but it should NOT be this hard to exchange money for a purse.

D&B watch

This past month I’ve been obsessed with finding one of these watches in relatively good condition (minus the bands because that’s almost impossible)😭 found this one on eBay for around $30 and decided to pull the trigger. The face of the watch is all i cared about and it’s near perfect condition with the no missing stones! The bands are pretty bad but I’m just going to switch them out with different ones. Either way im really excited about this find! 😊

Buyer beware

So I ran to Ross earlier to see what they had (did I mention I’m addicted?) and I found a black Pebble Grain Paige Sac for $55. The store did disclose the zipper was broken but I figured I could have that easily fixed. I also grabbed a Canvas Pickleball Duffle 40 for $30, I don’t play Pickleball but my in-laws do so I figured it would be a nice gift.

However, once I made it back to my car I took a better look at the hobo and saw that the inside was stuffed with random tissue paper and there were obvious wear stains on the inside so I walked back in to return it. Sometimes the store finds aren’t always wins, but at least I was able to return this one.
