Are these worth buying?

[BoomerSooner]

No, I don't pack search. Hot packs I get are from ebay.

I think the thought was that, in a way, people who buy hot packs are enabling pack searching, although, like mintman pointed out, they could be legitimately purchased and resold.

My first introduction to "hot packs". Will likely never purchase any, but thanks for the education.
Thanks,

I've always called packs of benchwarmer cards "hot packs"...
