I highly doubt that's fake. Anyone trying to fake a bottle would do their best to make it look like the real thing. That seems to be one of those joke wax jobs that TG has done before (there are photos of legit bottles of 2013 Assassin where half the bottle is waxed, for instance).

Isn't the 2012 (red wax) batch of Assassin considered ****** almost across the board? Never heard a positive thing about it.
 
Was just about to post this.

There was a similar post about Focal Banger a month or so ago and it was selling more than this. I really hope this is fake.

am i the only one kinda bothered by the fact that the $1275 being charged for 3 bottles doesn't include free shipping? can't let that $25 shipping charge eat into my profits!

also, the friends and family option is... 3%, yes? in this case it's $38ish but i've seen posts asking for friends and family when the bottle is like $75. seriously? you couldn't foot that $2 charge yourself?
 
Amihigh or is half the bottle waxed too?

This is correct. The 2012 first batch of Assassin was the red wax however was filled too full and they had leakage issues so they took one of the barrels that was for the original batch of kbbs and converted to a second batch of assassin that they covered with gold wax. This batch was never sold it was given as an exchange to those with red wax that had an issue w leaking. In terms of the wax job that is 100% real I bet. When I was sent mine the entire bottle was entombed in wax. Here is a pic of what was left after chipping it out.

Not sure if they're having fun, or complete idiots.
