You're welcome! Unfortunately, there are lots of "vintage" fakes too. The counterfeiters will make anything they think will sell.

Can you tell me if this is real D&B bag?

Sorry, it's fake. There are many things wrong, including that it isn't a Dooney style, but the most obvious problem is the pleather-covered buckle.

Dooney uses solid brass hardware. They'd never cover beautiful brass with plastic/pleather.

Did you get it on ebay?

Thank you so much!

I got it in the consignment store.
I can take it back.

If they give you a hard time, remind them that as sellers, it's their responsibility to verify authenticity before placing any item for sale. CLearly, they didn't do that.

The color does appear to be raspberry.

Is there a tag? THat would have the style name.

I found this listing in which the seller calls it a mini zip top. Depending on the size, that might be it. THere were a couple of different sizes:

If you google Dooney's 1-800 number, they might be able to give you the style name based on the serial number.
