I think in general these groups are fine, since some advanced collectors may only need a couple of cards, and others on a budget may only be able to afford a couple. So if it's done in good faith I am okay with it. However, I have spoken to people who have consigned some of these groups and often they are not happy with the results. Likewise, I have seen groups come on the board after an auction closes and congratulate each other on the great deal they got. I'm not sure I would put that in print.

I for one suggest to my consignors that I sell their cards one at a time (the exception might be to leave a complete set intact). It's a selling point that most of them appreciate.
