The pink bag with the hearts is huge? I was going to get it for my daughter. How big is the thing?

No, I was responding to the questions about the pink signature bag someone else had posted. That pink hearts bag is tiny I believe.

Wish I saw this thread earlier because the pink AWL 2 hobo is 100% authentic. It is from spring 2005 and many bags (I have one from this line) have that same round palladium coated emblem and lining. The lining compared to my bag is identical. Keep looking I hope you find another one.

Thanks for the information Angie. That seller had lots of good stuff, would stink if she was mixing real and fake.

That was a cute bag n19, but you know Dooney did make more than one of them, keep looking!

Thanks everyone, I'm still on the lookout for my AWL. I'm lurking on EBAY every day!!!! There are a few but I know nothing about AWL really. I'll definately be looking for everyone's help. (I still wanted that pink hobo)

That red nubuck looks authentic, but like above, I'd ask for pics of the inside, and a close up of the creed patch. Dooney did make a bag that style 2-3 years ago in Nubuck and I've seen similar styles in my TJMaxx lately.

Hi, I am finding this website very difficult to understand. I need to find information as to whether a Dooney&Bourke purse I purchased is in fact authenticate. How and where would I do this?,
Thanks,
Pattie

You post an auction's link here and the Dooney fans look at the auction and give opinions on whether it looks real or there is sufficient information listed to give an opinion.

If you look on eBay's home page there is a link to guides and reviews near the bottom of the left hand side. Search for Dooney and there are a number of guides listed.

This site or the Shoes, Purses and Accessories board on eBay are faster but looking through the guides is helpful as well.

^^You can also post your own pictures of the bag--outside, seams, inside, tag, that kind of thing, in this thread. Doesn't necessarily have to be an Ebay auction.
