"Hot Pack" Question

[selby56]

i agree i wouldn't take a chance on them either but honestly pack searching doesn't really bother me that much because it saves the diehards money the only thing that kind of makes me mad about it is when little 13 year olds learn what it is and they start cleaning out all the packs every where and they don't have the same appreciation for card collecting as people that have been doing it longer, but thats just me.

Pack searching doesn't save diehards money...it is just an unfair way to get the good stuff. All the little kids want to get a jersey, but they never will with people always pack searching.

well you do want the good stuff... and too a little kid a card is a card but if its a jersey card or an auto than thats awesome for them so i don't blame them for doing it of course why wouldn't you want a good card so pack searchers just beat the system i don't really see whats wrong with that so you are supposed to waist your money buying packs with just base cards? I mean yeah it takes away from the fun of grabbing a pack and finding one... cause if you know its in their you don't really get that excited because you know what too expect

I just think its an unfair advantage. I'd rather end up with packs full of base than to unfairly get "Good" stuff. Of course, I'm not that big a fan of jersey cards either, so I guess I wouldn't know.

i actually did pull a ryan zimmerman bowman chrome auto out of a 20$ hot pack it books 100$ so i was happy

well i like jersey cards and autos but i think its a little extreme to take in a digital scale and weigh a pack of cards... also ive gone too places and i can tell people have been doing the bending method because people who aren't pros at it bend the whole pack of cards thats when it gets ridiculous but idk i buy more boxes than i do packs or ill just buy individually

AVOID THEM AT ALL COST! I was tempted into buying a 2007 SPA Football that had the autographed rookies patches in it! I paid around $70 bucks for it! Afterwards I was contacted by a fellow member that purchased one from the same seller previously. He told me to look the pack over good before opening it. I received the pack and I mean THIS GUY WAS GOOD! I couldn't tell anything from the outside but when I opened it I notice that the glue was different. Naturally I hit a Brian Calhoun autograph patch rookie! We contacted at least 100 members that had bought "Hot Packs" from this seller to find out if they had hit anything. Everybody got an autograph patch but it was JUNK! All of these packs are resealed! I mean just think about it! Why buy a box for $150 that contains 2-3 hits per box and then sells the "Hot Packs" for $30 a piece? TRUST ME AND SAVE YOUR MONEY AND TIME!

Ya.. I bought a Press Pass "Hot Pack" and got it in the mail today. I inspected it closely and it looked fine.

But then I tried to pull from the middle seam and that **** did not open. It was the hardest pack I have ever tried. I left neg feedback - it was clearly superglued.

And FYI - Undrafted LB from Illinois J Lehman. Whattya know.
