Hi everybody! I hope this is the right thread to ask this : I found a Dunhill Bourdon briefcase on Grailed, but as this is the fourth one this particular seller sells, I am a bit wary. He's in the US, I spoke with him and he's really articulate and willing to help, and his explanation regarding why he is selling so much Dunhill briefcases seems legit, but I wanna be completely sure before buying. I am not wealthy and would hate to buy a fake. Here are the pictures : Thanks a lot for your help!

looks legit. why is he selling so much dunhill on grailed?

Thanks for your help! He told me he gets spillover from big VIP events held by a public affairs company run by a relative of his.

Can anyone kindly give me some feedback on St Dupont Ligne D Élysées brown briefcase? Is it durable and does the leather get a good patina over time?

Also drooling over Moynat's Juste A Tempes but I think it is way beyond my budget.

Picked up a Whipping Post Zip Top Briefcase this week. Really loving that leather smell.

I was in Cannes a few days ago and had to purchase the Berluti "Un Jour." I have an Hermès Sac à Dépêches in black, so needed a brown bag.

Nice bag.

Ever since I first saw this range, I've wanted to make something similar. It has great depth of character. I have some very deep purple leather which is antiqued like the Berluti leather.

Would love to see the deep purple, Craftsman. Sounds cool!

I recently picked up a Vermilyea Pelle briefcase to replace a well-used Timbuk2. The Timbuk2 served me well for around 8 or 9 years, but it was starting to get dilapidated, and - frankly - I was ready for a change. The VP bag seems very well made, based on my limited knowledge of briefcase construction. This particular build is 18oz olive drab canvas with veg-tan horsehide straps. I've only had it for a week, but I'm already a fan of VP's products.
