So you were the seller and now she is saying it is not real leather?? I looked at her feedback and she does buy A LOT of Dooney and Bourke bags. None as expensive as yours though. Could be buyer remorse. Point being... she has to take it to a store and have the manager state that it is not leather. I can see why you are worried because you have 100% positive feedback. You can do a few things. You can offer to refund the price of the bag minus the shipping, and file for a final value fee credit to protect your feedback. That is a really safe way to go. You can ask her to take it to a D&B store and prove that it is not leather. She might not do that and get mad and leave negative fb, but you can always deal with eBay to get it taken off stating that the buyer refused to authenticate it and just left negative fb. eBay these days and their new 'protect the buyer' rules. SO frustrating!! Looking through her stuff she seems like a nightmare. She actually states in her bra auctions " IF YOU ARE OVERLY PICKY, A PAIN TO PLEASE OR JUST PLAIN CRANKY.....PLEASE DO NOT BID!! PLEASE DO NOT ASSUME ANYTHING!! ASK QUESTIONS!!"
Has she told you what she wants? Would she be happy with a refund minus the shipping? I would play it safe because she seems like a difficult person. You might have to just suck this one up to protect your feedback. I'm curious what other people will tell you to do. Good luck!! I feel for you, I really do.

Correction: she sells a lot of Dooney and Bourke bags, some in wretched condition.

That bag is real, and GORGEOUS!!!! That is from the original Alto line, like my Large Frame Pocket Satchel...

If the buyer is unhappy, tell her to SHUT UP! and then give her my address so she can send me the bag!

lulu3955 · Aug 20th, 2008, 05:04 PM

I think it's an Alto Double Handled U bag

Kallista81 · Aug 20th, 2008, 08:55 PM

Hi there!

I'm wondering if you all can tell me if this purse looks real. I'm so confused by all the checklists I've been reading!

You can see pictures at http://photobucket.com/kallista81

Thank you in advance for any information!

yes that bag is real.

it is often called the "double buckle" line of bags - because there are always two. AKA the "belt buckle duffle" which is what i think dooney calls them. i have only been able to find them at maxx.

lindajackman · Aug 21st, 2008, 07:08 AM

Thanks for posting.
Keep it up.

Kallista81 · Aug 21st, 2008, 07:34 AM

Bag-Princess, thank you soooo much. I wanted to sell the bag but was afraid it was a fake. I found it at TJ Maxx like you thought!

We are short the money we need to go get our daughter from Kyrgyzstan in October so I am selling like a mad woman to try to come up with the rest of the money.

I really appreciate the help!

foul temptress · Aug 23rd, 2008, 02:14 PM

Need help with this one.
Never seen a Dooney like this.
I love the look. Is it for real?
