This one looks authentic, also. Quite similar to the one on the Dooney website.

Why don't you buy from the dooney website instead? The ebay seller is selling for $208 and Dooney.com sells for $225 - not much of a price difference in my opinion.

I recently found a bag on ebay that I think is legit, but I don't really know how to tell if it is a real Dooney or not. The seller sent me a close up of the patch on the front because I couldn't see it well in the original pictures. The seller has 100% feedback on about 400 items. Like I said, I really want to get this bag, but I need confidence that it is real!! Can you help me? I have attached the photos. Any info that you can give will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!

Grr....I can't get the upclose of the patch to post here. I will PM it to somebody if they need it for confirmation. Thanks!
 
These look look like the Dooney nubuck leather items, and do look real. The timing is about right, too, as many of the nubuck items have made their way into outlets recently. The handles look good, as do everything else on the exterior.

I think this is authentic.
 
I have a HUGE favor to ask of you ladies!! Does anyone live near a Dooney and Bourke outlet? From my search on the internet, there isn't one in Georgia :cry:. If anyone is going by an outlet any time soon, could you see if they have the East/West Suede Slouch? I have been looking at one on ebay for a while (above posting) but am a little undecided on the color. I went to the Dooney and Bourke website and this bag is on sale for $147. If the outlet price isn't as good as that, I will just buy it off of the website. However, if the outlet price is better I may be asking another favor soon!!! Thanks a bunch :yes:
 
Hmmmm.....I am attempting to edit my previous post, but I haven't figured out how. Basically, forget that I posted it! Some things have come to my attention that I didn't know about before. Again, please VOID the previous post. I would delete it if I could figure out how. Thanks!
 
Can someone please authenticate this? I have never seen a D & B that indicates assembled in Mexico...all other features of the bag appear accurate...Here are the photo links...TIA

Searching the ebay purse board found quite a number of posters confirming assembly plants in Mexico. That is a relief as the bag looks great to me. I don't have an IT bag [yet] but the tag, zipper and tassel look right. Too lazy to go see if where my newer bags are made.

Okay, short version. I think the bag is real.
