Hi girls, this picture is terrible of Dooney bag and accesories, but this is all the seller sent me (its a craigslist ad). Can you tell me what details of the bag/specific pictures I need to ask for from her in order to tell if this is authentic? Looks like it is a little pouch, a bucket bag, and a cell phone holder...thanks in advance!:heart:

wow... she couldn't taken a more blurry photo!

let's see...

you need to ask for a pic of the zipper, make sure that it's a rainbow zipper in metal NOT plastic!

Also, make sure the linings are light blue, and ask for a picture of the bottom of the bag, Dooney ALWAYS uses either 4 or 6 feet, the only time they used 5 was WAY long ago...

also, ask for a pic of the red, white, and blue tag, and the Authenticity code, and also, ask for a pic of the Heart fob on each piece... I have some Dooney and Bourke IT items you can compare it too...




WELL... I hope I helped! Hopefully this bag is a steal!

This is the only pic she has I will ask her for more
 
Hey Cherrybee....

Ok, the colors DO lineup on the outside... and I see that it also has the rainbow zipper... so far it is authentic!

When you ask her for more pics ask her for a pic of the red, white, blue tag... and the inside...

But I am almost certain that it's authentic! And that vachetta is in WONDERFUL condition!

Congrats!!!
 
I have included several photos of what I think is a real North/South Shoulder Bag - m/n R284SA. It looks pretty good to me but I don't know much about D&B and couldn't find much about it online. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
