Poshmark is AWFUL when it comes to removing fakes.
This 💯

I'm just starting to pay more attention to the more vintage styles and there is so many differences and I've become aware of the fake bags about a year ago when I first started purchasing 2nd hand.
If you intend to purchase vintage D&B off PM, authenticate them in here first. The market at that time was flooded with fake D&B's. PM has sooooooooo many fake D&B listed, it's insane!

Also, be sure to check out this thread - because there are fake Florentine satchels circulating the preloved platforms too.

i will definitely come here first before buying anything 2nd hand. It is so awesome to have this site with so much information and 1st hand knowledge. I have been spending my free time reading all these posts and learning how to use this website. Besides Facebook I've never connected with other's like this and i like it a lot. Thanks for the tips.
 
I found this gem at our church sale. Can you please tell in this is real? Thank you in advance.

Wondering about this vintage Dooney checkbook wallet with strap. The hallmarks are similar to my Large Zip-Along - the chamois style leather lining, the imprint of the logo on the leather interior, the AWL texture. It feels really authentic, but I can't find this exact model in the vintage D&B catalogs I have access to. Is it authentic? If so, does anyone know what the model number or name is?

Hello authenticator's I need your help again with a Poshmark listing for an Alto leather and canvas handbag. It has a Dooney and Bourke made in Italy tag and the new canvas collection has me all about this one but wondering if it's authentic and if not then I'm ordering that canvas suitcase in forest instead lol.... Hope all is well and thank you in advance.

does anyone have this or know if this is real?
 
Hello Dooney authenticators. I would appreciate your feedback on this thrifted Dooney Satchel (Vintage).
She measures approximately 13” X 9” X 4” at the base. The zipper is broken and she’s missing the crossbody strap, so I’m hoping to see that she’s authentic before I put time into making her pretty. Do you feel she’s authentic? TIA!

I found this in y Dad’s things. No idea if it’s real.

Thank you so much for your time.

Hello - I recently purchased a gorgeous “vintage” Dooney and Bourke purse from a local thrift store. I didn’t see any serial tags so I’m hoping it pre-dates when those started being used. Can I get some help estimating how old the bag is and if it’s truly authentic? I haven’t had any luck finding another bag that looks just like it. Thank you in advance!IMG_3504.jpeg
