So, I now agree that anyone selling the set, should say if they are not including the Traded cards in the set they are selling. Having said that, I feel it should still be up to the buyer to verify what cards are included, before bidding. I can see, though, under ebay's rules favoring the buyer, that any seller who doesn't specify that the Traded cards are not included, is opening him/herself to a buyer complaint and possible refund.
