I mention a book as a resource to help answer a question.  I don't
necessarily sell the book, but it IS a way to help answer the question.

If someone asked "do you have a RaQ for sale?" then an answer, while it
arguably should be directed offlist, at least would be on-topic.

That's great for the lists you own.  If I start the "cobalt-equipment"
list I certainly won't find it offensive on THAT list.
