Default X Mas Packs

I agree with all you points Scott. In fact, I do not think it has ever really been established when the original repackaging was done and by whom. Mark Murphy introduced them into the hobby but neither he nor anyone associated with him could or would ever say what retailer(s) handled them and who did the repackaging and when. Initially Murphy said the packs he obtained ran from 54 to 63, but later 52s and 53s also surfaced.

But, I think the mystery and uncertainty is also part of their allure. After all, people gamble in Vegas and play the lottery, even though almost everyone loses
