Resealable Brand-name Alcohol Bottles on Taobao

You watched the bartender open the fresh-off-the-shelf bottle yourself, it has to be real alcohol inside, right?

Nope. 

A simple Taobao search turns up sellers providing empty secondhand bottles of popular brands ranging from Absolut Vodka to Hennessy. One Foshan-based seller even includes illustrated instructions on how to reseal the bottle using a hairdryer.

Step two says to fill the bottle with water, but one could put anything they wanted in at that point. Remember friends, if the price seems to good to be true, you could be paying for it tomorrow with a hideous hangover. Or you could go blind.
