I'm very much a beginner with handbags, but want to learn how to tell an authentic Dooney from a fake. I've been reading around and doing some research and I hope you guys can help me learn by confirming whether or not some eBay listings are fake.

I am pretty confident this one is a fake, can you all confirm that?

Also, I *think* this one is authentic, but don't know if I'm missing anything that would show it to be fake. Is this really an authentic Dooney?

And finally, this I'm leaning towards fake on this one but I'm really not sure.

Thanks in advance!
 
#1 might be OK but would need to show a red white and blue label sewn inside to authenticate. It looks like a reissue of the Equestrian bag in "saffiano" leather.
#2 and #3 are authentic, vintage All Weather Leather.

It's an authentic signature shoulder sac. I can't explain the buckles except to speculate that they might coat them with silver if that's the color they think will sell better.
