It's authentic, made in 2001. The color looks like camel.

thank you very much BeenBurned.

I reported this to ebay and they did not remove it and someone bought it. The listing uses a stock picture as the main photo and then photos of what I believe are a counterfeit bag. Thank you for your time and knowledge!

You're right. It's fake.

See my edited post. I added pictures.

Good thing too, the listing has Poofed. I hope Ebay got a message to the buyer before she paid.

The fakers didn't get much right on that one, did they?

Do you have a link to the listing you bought? I'm seeing a dinky in her sold items, described as a dinky pocket crossbody purse, and also probably a pocket purse, described as a slim cross body classic saddlebag. What you received is an authentic pocket purse made in 1998. It is not a dinky.

A huge congrats to you!! I was lucky enough to find one two months ago too but haven’t rehabbed yet. Hyacinth kindly authenticated her as well.
I’m trying to get my skills better on other bags as I’m so excited to do mine. The color shows about the same as yours.

@SuzieSueSure - Congratulations to you on your great find! Bag twins❤ I am looking forward to seeing your beauty too. Like @Hyacinth - said if those bags could talk. We can only imagine the places they have traveled. Thank you! I have received all of my supplies yet - but can't wait to see her looking good again!

The link no longer works. I am posting a photo of the link that is stored in my purchases on my account. Thank you.

Yes, that is a dinky. That isn't what you purchased. It looks like the seller made a mistake. Did you contact the seller? The pocket purse is bigger and has a wider removable strap.

I haven't contacted her yet to let her know. When I first made the purchase she told me that she misplaced the bag and then found it. I wanted to make sure I wasn't imaging things. I appreciate your expertise and help. Thanks!
