I thought a breeding pair was an unrelated pair (a pair suitable for breeding) as opposed to two snakes from the same parents.

Hmm. Fair enough, so if I buy a "breeding pair" they should have already bred? I didn't know this. I just thought they had to be unrelated.

A breeding pair can be unrelated (desirable), they dont need to be from the same parents (undesirable).

Yes, if you buy a breeding pair, they should have already bred with each other, and preferably produced eggs. Without producing eggs i dont see them as being a breeding pair...just a pair that have mated.
