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...

Here it is:

It's authentic! And it sure looks like it was hardly used.

But $675?? NFW! I might pay 10% of that! Or maybe $75. But I don't know what that seller is smoking or drinking but there's no way she'll get anywhere close to her price!
 
Hi - Can someone help me out with this cute bag?
There was no hang tag when I got it, I added it.
It measures 8" x 7.5" x 3.5".
When was it made, what style, etc? And Of course is it authentic?
THANK YOU!

As best I can tell, this is called a patent large wristlet. Please let me know if any more pics are needed. Thank you for taking a look, authenticators. :flowers:

Hi everyone :smile1:
I've got an interesting one for authentication. It's currently in my possession.
I have no idea what its name is--it's not quite a tack bag, or an equestrian bag.
Pictures
TIA! :smile1:
It's authentic and looks like an over and under bag.

It's authentic and appears to be a surrey bag. I think it's a pre-duck version.

It's authentic and a patent wristlet.

It wasn't until the last few years that Dooney had fancy names for its styles. Until then, they names were function, size and material related, thus large patent wristlet.
 
Hello! I asked earlier if someone could tell me if this is authentic. I was told it was! Does anyone know the name of it? How can you tell it's authentic?
