I completely believe this story, because I've done similar stuff. In 1998 I was working for a company that was using a lot more incoming bandwidth than outgoing bandwidth, which is the reverse of the usual pattern. So when we outgrew our data shack and had to move to a real data center, I badgered my sales guy into showing me the overall bandwidth usage charts for the proposed location.
Unsurprisingly, there was way more data flowing out of the facility than there was flowing in, so I talked him into a substantial discount on inbound traffic. "Hey, nothing else is using that half of the duplex..."
