I hope you enjoy this #dooneyandbourke unboxing/authentidication tutorial . Also, I will be selling a lot of my finds on #Poshmark as well so if I ever haul an item that you're are intersted in, comment on that video and we can see about getting the item out to you! Thanks for watching guys!

Thank you! You helped me authenticate that my DB is real. Name is on zip, 'real brass', quality is definitely there (I have 8 others). But this one has no inner label/serial #. I found that DB would remove the labels at their outlet store and early DB's didnt have the labels. As well, you can check that "Dooney and Bourke" is printed on the reverse side of the rivets on the shoulder strap. (Mine does). The duck fob on mine has been replaced with a more modern "DB" brass fob, but I have 8 others,so no problem there. Thanks for yourfurther tips which just eased my mind and assured me it was legit!

Great video! With Dooney and Bourke I always find the easiest ways to spot a fake is the hardware branding and the interior lining as well. My thrift store loves to sell fake Dooney and Bourkes lol and it’s definitely helped me authenticate a few here and there.

My thrift store recently had a fake Dooney and Bourke and I was gonna tell someone but I know they would just put it right back on the floor when I left.

Okay but when the brand first came out like way back in 1980's the brand didn't start sewing in there tags inside of the bag till 1983 so there are some bags that are real without the tags inside of the bag they are very vintage ones tho

Actually the tag you are referring to is the green tag, not the registration tag . The green tags were dropped to develop the interior pocket in anout 1985. The registration tags did not come about until approx 1988. I have seen plenty of faked registration tags. Don't rely solely on the presence or lack of a tag to dtermibe authencity. :)

Hey Beautiful Lady ! So glad to find your authentication video ! Thank you soo much ! Never looked into this before and know next to nothing about the Dooney bags . I did find a purse at a thrift store and for 4 .00 decided to buy and check into it Everything checks out according to your criteria as well as the company’s website . That is with the exception of the fact I cannot see writing about genuine brass and the zipper pull doesn’t say Dooney . Seems strange To have all important and main trademarks check out but those two . Are either of those giveaways or one of exceptions? If genuine how Fo I determine what to ask for it ? Pristine condition!😄😉Thanks a million!

Do the fake ones put one like that inside the bag? Because both of mine have the red white and blue tag that says Dooney & Bourke. Does that mean mine are real? Or do the fake ones put that in their bags also? Great video, by the way. It was very informative. Thank you!!

I found a vintage dooney at a local thrift store for $1. Its solid black, and had the duck fob on leather. I haven't found another online like it. But I am 99% sure its authentic because it has all the correct hardware, feet, zippers and liner. And it is crazy soft leather. What's funny is I had no idea it was a designer bag when i got it, i just nee it was beautifully made and of quality.

I believe that first Cooney to be authentic. Vintage Dooney all weather bags are stiff. There may even be a sticker in it that says Dooney & Bourke Made in USA (circa early 80's). Does it have a YKK zipper? If it does I am 99% sure its real. Vintage Dooney does not have all the fonts on the hardware. The only thing throwing me off is the duck charm. The holder should be leather. But again not certain.

I beg to differ. I believe that bag may be be authentic. Not all Dooneys will have the authentic tag. That was only done in the late eighties. I have delt with a lot of Dooneys. Many were very deep green color. The all weather leather is stiff and made so to resist water. They were not fashion or designer bags when they were first made, but they were used by horseback riders. You had a tag on the side which you did not show. Just saying.

@@BrandieChannail One thing is that who ever owned it, put leather product on it. You dont do that with all weather leather. Another thing not many fakes were produced at that time. Dooney wasn't well sought after like Chanel. Most replicas came out after the late 80's and 90's. Many bag companies only started putting tags in their bags to fight off counterfeit bags. It stated what plant it was made in and origin of country. The very early Chanels did not have tags. In fact, Dooney has been sued for copyright infringement violations, to be honest with you. They started out as a men's equestrian supply company. But woman began to use the equestrian bags as handbags. And their company took off.:)
