It's fake. That style has a plain leather pull for the zipper... but the one in the picture shows the zipper pull tab with the duck fob on the end of it. The duck key fob should be looped around the handle (like a key fob!) and not as part of the zipper pull. I also agree with princesslisa in that it should not have the leather Dooney patch sewn onto the cell phone pocket. Typically is is found above the interior zipper pocket.

I am definitely not an expert on determining authenticity for a dooney and bourke handbags. But I have seen many-many-many Dooney Handbags and this does not look to be authentic.

Is this from an eBay auction? Do you have the listing number?

I believe this is the item:
280060707564
I did a search on ebay and matched the "check" list description and pictures. It appears to be the same one.
This seller has pretty good feedback, but I still think this bag is fake.

here is my bag from that same line

as you can see in the first pic of the cell phone pocket there is nothing sewn on the pocket


in this pic as boysRsmelly stated the duck is suppose to be almost like a key fob as you can clearly see in this pic

Hi sorry I totally did not see that you asked if this was from an ebay auction and it was. I guess maybe it is a good thing he offers money back if it turns out it is a fake. My boyfriend bought it for me and really did not do his homework before buying but hey you gotta love him for trying. Anyways, I will post some more pics of it when I get it. Thanks for replying!

This is my first time out here, and I am not quite sure how to place a picture out here from my email account. I have yahoo for mail. It was an ebay purchase if that helps you.
If you can walk me through placing a picture out here, I will
