All are authentic.

The first is a signature bucket bag.
The second is a signature top zip tassel tote.
The third might be called a signature clip hobo. (Not sure of the correct name of that one.)
 
I believe I have a Dooney purse that is like a briefcase, I'm sure it is vintage. Can anyone help me figure out if it's real and if it is what exactly collection it is?I am new and have not figured my way around here yet?
 
Has anyone seen a serial number like this one?
looks unusual

Anyone want to take a shot at the 1984 "Dooney" being sold on Poshmark for $700? Sorry I can't get it to link. Of course, there is no tag and author goes on to copy from Internet why that might be for an alleged pristine never used Dooney that just appeared one fine day from 1984.

Can anyone help me link it?

I would hope the buyer would authenticate such an item before buying...
