It sounds more like the seller is bragging, as if to say, "I have a complete set and am breaking it up." Well, congratulations to you, I guess.
A hobby "theme" that annoys me is how many seem super excited to get a card in a slab as if it will magically transform a card to a higher level of existence!

I hate when a grouping of unlike cards is referred to as a "set!"

Along the same lines at what point is a grouping of like cards a "partial" set? are 10 t206's a partial set????

I dislike "puffery" in most forms as well.

I can go on and on!!!!!!
