[AusNOG] 23 VOIP phones for sale

[Ed Hallett]

My thoughts are more along the "community" lines. Sure, if you have a
pallet or ten of older servers you'd like to offload - naturally, people
on this list may be interested - and likely get a decent pricing before
it goes onto the public domain. Naturally, I have a preference for
dealing with good friends and colleagues than competing in the rat race
with the general public ;-)

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).

after _network resource_ , which would be covered by the list charter 
	
	Messages like " hey, I got phones, servers, blah blah blah  for
sale" - since they are a dime a dozen from ebay to PC shops to
networking brokers - are likely _not_ covered by list charter and
(bordering on spam) off topic.
	
	but thats just my opinion

	It sure has been that lately with all the prefix

	sell on the list, but everyone else can?  What's
