Sure. Says it right there in the T&Cs- the points you are buying are not your property and are governed by the terms of Hilton Honors. Pro tip: don't buy pigs in pokes when the terms and conditions say "you are buying a pig in a poke" if you don't actually want a pig in a poke. One could spend the money spent on points on renting an actual hotel room, for instance, and get much more in the way of protection for purchase.
But of course the OP probably discerned some advantage to buying points that have restrictions on them as opposed to renting hotel rooms. Which I am quite sure is entirely unrelated to serial complaints.
