My opinion is more so:

  You do not sell these items as your core business (i.e. 
hardware/resources you are trying to offload) is not really a 'sales' 
pitch. You are selling them, but that isn't your business.
  If you are a hardware sales company trying to sell BRAND NEW products 
and pitching the list (i.e. The NEW Cisco/Brocade/Juniper routers are 
in, great specs, great deal at only blah blah blah) then that is too 
sales-y.

  There is a grey area middle ground where some hardware 
vendors/resellers may have some surplus/cheap stock and offer an AusNOG 
exclusive deal. Some of these, I'd be OK with (I believe Skeeve had one 
a while ago on some entry level Juniper kit, which was actually really 
helpful for a lot of techs here).
