I've had the same sort of thing proposed. If the customer knows in advance that you're going to send all their traffic through your cheapest peer/transit path available, what's the problem? They get what they pay for...and for this sort of service, they'd obviously be paying noticably less than best path routed customers.
full disclosure, no problem. I've never personally seen a sales rep go in and disclose something like this, and the original message was worded in such a way ("[my] upper management has proposed that I route company X's Internet traffic via a specific NSP ..") that did not indicate the customer had any idea what was being proposed. -travis
