My name is Rachel Strickland and I am a full-time reseller reselling online on ebay, posmark and mercari. My passion for thrifting and treasure hunting has enabled me to quit my job and become an ebay reseller full time. I am so excited to be self-employed that I want to show YOU how to quit your job and start reselling too! Selling on ebay and making money on ebay is something ANYONE can do. It's a great side hustle as a part-time reseller or a phenomenal full-time income you can work from home. My desire is to share and teach you HOW TO BE A RESELLER. I fill my videos with ebay tips and tricks to help you learn how to sell on ebay.
Mainly I source and buy my reselling inventory at thrift stores because I simply love to thrift, take you guys along on a thrift vlog and film and showcase thrift hauls full of vintage and designer goods. I shop goodwill, salvation army, small town thrifts, the Goodwill bins ( Goodwill outlet) and more.
When I am not thrifting, I love to shop yardsales and ensure you know a good BOLO when you see one and what to buy at yard sales.
I also source at auctions including online auctions, estate auctions, and live auction houses always showcasing my auction haul and auction scores with you guys. I take auction go pro style first-person videos.
Even more than showing you guys my hauls, I love to educate and show you what sold and why so that you can learn how to source as a reseller as well.
My Friday night live shows are a great way to get involved in the online reseller community and learn tips and tricks from the reselling pros.
So come along with me and my American Picker style RU-vid Channel as we find and flip the coolest vintage and designer goods, learn how to ship breakables, authenticate coach, nikes and Louis Vuitton and more! I am so glad you are here!

Thank-you so much for the information! I had a FAKE Dooney & Bourke in my store but was able to determine that it was a fake with the information you provided. So grateful for resellers that are willing to share their knowledge. "Show Me" a fellow Missourian

I have a Dooneyi bought in 1994 and it’s still in excellent shape. It’s fun to see the difference with an old fake. These I can tell pretty easy since I have one. Mine has a metal zipper but my BFF bought one at Dillard’s the same year and hers was plastic. Both authentic.

@MyOver50 6 месяцев назад

That is very odd. I wonder if it was gifted to her in a Dillard's box.

@brendatomlinson Год назад

Your integrity is off the charts madam. Honestly, some days I feel like I’m the only person around who believes in always doing the right thing, every time. I applaud you for taking the initiative to destroy these fakes. I knew the authentic Dooney from the intro. I was around when they were new; they were the only designer bags in my budget in the 80s - 90s. But I learned so much in this tutorial. I hadn’t thought about the repercussions of someone unwittingly buying a fake, selling it, and losing their account because of it. You’re an asset to us resellers. 🙏🏻

Thank you, Rachel! The vintage fakes are easier for me to discern between than the more modern ones. I’m interested in a video about how D&B manufacturing and quality has changed vs how it has stayed consistent from its beginning til now. I have a couple of bags that have the inside blue and white label with serial number but seem to be poor quality compared to their vintage bags. This has given me enough doubt that I haven’t listed them.

@MyOver50 6 месяцев назад

Great video!! Im a Dooney collector and on first glance it totally looked real. Sssssooo fake!! I agree about not keeping fake bags. It supports an illegal trade. I have no issue with bags that are similar style, but draw the line when they are trying to fool someone into thinking it is the real designer bag. TFS

Hi Rachel. Love your video. The first so called Dooney and Bourke purse I purchased, was from a secondhand store, and it turned out to be fake. I carried it for over two years before a friend of mine told me that it was a knockoff. The only reason she knew was that it was faux leather. Since then, I've dedicated myself on how to tell the difference between genuine and fake. Your video is doing such a great service for people. Thank you. -- There is one thing that I've noticed on many fakes that I've seen, that I'd like to share with you. (Your video stalled at one point, and I jumps ahead a little bit, so please ignore this tip if you did point it out. ). On the leather Duck Seal sewn onto the front of the purse, at the top of it are the words DOONEY & BOURKE. The upper right side of the & symbol's loop, isn't completely closed.on genuine D&B vintage purses. There is a slight gap, and doesn't touch the bottom half. But on many of the fake vintage bags, the upper loop is completely closed. Anyway, thought I'd mention it. I look forward to watching more of your informative videos. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

I bought a beautiful Dooney and Bourke bucket purse about 20 years ago from Macys. It came with the dust bag and a Registration card that I mailed into Dooney and Bourke. After 3 years the all the so called brass hardware turned silver color, some half brass color half silver color, I put it away and never used the purse again and I would never buy another one. I know my purse was Authentic

Great video! Thanks for posting. (I do feel bad that they are destroyed though). Some people have nothing., and could really use a nice "fake" looking bag. Like maybe take a PERMANENT marker and write fake all over inside and underneath? I just hate seeing things being wasted. I know it sounds stupid, but I feel for those than can hardly even afford a regular cheap handbag that falls apart after a few months. JMHO. Thanks again Rachel!

17:37 Hi! It was very interesting watching you compare the real with the fake. I just bought one on Poshmark and am having some doubts about the authenticity of it. Do all D&Bs have the duck on them? Mine has no ducks anywhere. I have other concerns also.

@ToOpen6seven 6 месяцев назад

If you order directly from Dooney and Bourke website and you receive a Florentine leather bag and the green suede is a different green than my other Florentine bag (same satchel, just different sizes). Also on the latest Florentine satchel, the duck's bill was touching the belly and when compared to my other DB I didn't see this, but a small gap between the bill and the stomach. Do you think I have a fake? I felt if I was ordering directly from DB site I would NOT be getting a fake bag.

If it's an official dooney & Bourke outlet, they are real. However, some products are made for the outlet and lesser quality. Others are simply overstock.

@RachelStrickland Год назад

I have real bags and a healthy bank account. Fakes fund a lot of disgusting things like human trafficking and child abuse in the form of child labor. I made an entire video about this, if you want to find out more. I understand some people just don't understand and are ill informed.. By all means, owning a luxury bag is not a necessity. If you cannot buy a dooney Bourke, louis vuitton or gucci, you don't have to. It says nothing about a person to own one or not own one. In fact, I dare say it should be the least interesting thing about you. Funding drug cartles and child labor, however, says a lot about a person. Buying counterfeits funds those organizations. Doing so out of ignorance is one thing. But now you know.

@jenniferbrenner3402 3 месяца назад

If Dooney has outsourced their manufacturing to China. China has horrible quality control. They deliberately use cheaper materials. Therefore, this bag could have been requisitioned by Dooney and sold as a Dooney, and be an "Authentic" Dooney, but China's quality is awful. This goes with many products such as furniture, Instruments (The Selmer Company) and other companies have done this with equally bad results. The bad thing for consumers, is that we get the cheep product and the companies gain the same profit off the backs of child and slave labor.
