I've been bitten by the Dooney bug - Page 2

A very happy birthday to you!

I was bitten by the Dooney bug a while back, and now am Looney for Dooney. Just when I say I am done, there's something new that catches my eye. I wanted a very small cross-body, just for the summer months, and ordered the very small daffodil cross-body ("as is"), with the black background. It's such a cute one and keeps me happy with my collection...for a while.

I love my dooneys. I have had very good luck with the "as is" on QVC. But not everyone has been so lucky I'm sorry to say. I have also been lucky at the dooney outlet stores also. Same top quality at a much reduced price (not like Coach....reduced quality for reduced price. I was even told that by a friend that worked at a Coach store..the handbags sold at the coach outlet are different than the ones sold at retail)

I wish I had a Dooney outlet store! Lucky you. There is a coach outlet nearby, but, unlike Dooney, coach makes different, cheaper bags for the outlet stores. I read an interview with coach executive about that. I'm glad that Dooney is Dooney no matter where it is sold.

That's a great birthday present to yourself!!!!!!!

I was bitten by the same bug many years ago - hate to tell you, there is no cure LOL

Happy Birthday to you! Enjoy your new bag. It happens like that, after I bought that first Dooney, I added several more to my collection pretty quickly. I was on roll...lol That's when I first used Easy Pay. And then it happened again with the Roma 2's. I couldn't get enough of them....I bought three, one right after another. But I was happy!

@Rachb congratulations on your new bag! I just purchased a black Florentine leather Clayton satchel at Marshall's for 99.00 plus I won a bid on eBay for a purple Harrington hobo with accessories for 65 love DB

Welcome to the disease. I've had it for many years and there is no cure.

I love my family, my fur boys, my Jayhawks and accounting!

Not true. I was a victim early on, but clearly have found an antidote, as this brand no longer interests me... Of course, I'm still a handbag junkie, just not a Dooney junkie...

In my pantry with my cupcakes...

I have several (I think 4) Dooney bags and the real big travel bag.

It's amazing how many people notice the Dooney emblem. I don't think about it and someone will say something about it. Usually they say they can't afford them. I find that embarrassing. I always tell them they can get them on QVC and do that pay thing they have if they can't get them all at once.

I can't carry a lot of them because they're too heavy. I always have to find out how heavy they are first.

One I pull out every summer is the one that is covered with Hyacinths plants (mine is in purple/blue). That one really catches people's eye!

@Annabellethecat66 that print sounds lovely! I have two with flower prints that were a TSV 3 years ago I think. I get the most complements on these than any other bag I own.
