Exactly! It's oversell - by my own definition. But, I do understand the seller's motive. He's trying to maximize his profit, which is the name of the game for anyone in virtually any business venture. This seller went overboard with words and pics, but it served to milk the last dollar out of the eventual buyer.....

Think I'm in the wrong business.....
