There's no reason a seller should be forced to only play the games he sells in a package during the time frame of that package unless he specifically said this was part of his deal.
I agree with the suggestion made by yourself and George. I probably should ask the seller prior to purchasing the package. At least its made me more cautious when making investment in these kinda packages.
One thing I'd like to point out is that if the seller is charging some sort of markup, you are effectively paying for their time (markup / # of hours played = their hourly wage for the package of tournaments). It just becomes counterproductive when they are exerting the same amount of effort towards games which have up to 10x difference in terms of value.
IMO, I find any number beyond 10 tables too much, and creates a situation where the player loses out on key information. Even if you are the best multi-tabler in the world or have purchased a HUD, you are still missing out on free information. If a person manages to sell shares @ 25% markup based on the fact that he has say 50% ROI over a 5,000 sample size, those numbers are not necessarily based on 15 tabling. Had the seller NOT been staked to play these bigger games, he would not be 15 tabling in the first place.
I wanna say as many as 50% of the investors don't even rail the sellers, they the whole picture of a stake, and only get a snapshot where the information is provided makes the OP looks good. I think some investors don't care too much about this issue, but if more of them actually railed, they'd be concerned.
