4 bottles of the same 1815 in the same auction. No pictures listed. "Reconditioned in 2015" by whom??

I'd avoid and assume fake until proven otherwise. WAY too many fakes from that period showing up right now.

PLEASE send them an email with a link to the thread you mentioned and advise them those bottles are possibly fake. It's Acker so I'm not holding my breath, but at least they'll be warned.
