I'm sure it was for their free books. The Cisco Press books are not free,
nor are they even Cisco's techically.

I would say they would be giving Cisco Press books away for free if thats
what they had in mind. Furthermore, either your network needed the
equipment or it didn't. While doing your due diligence for such a large
purchase I'm sure a $30-$50 book would have been rather insignifigant. If
he wants it for free, most of it is on the web site. If he wants to pay
for the work that was put into organizing the information into a book, he
has that option also.
