Certain gear costing nothing is a bug. Purchasing that gear during this time is taking advanatage of a bug, this is against the EULA and TOS that YOU agreed too. Blizzard also has high standards in terms of abusing bugs in-game. It's a shame really that probably no action/discipline will be handed out as so many took part. But this is no excuse to do it. I for one didn't.
You're terribly noble for not grabbing all you could, but with the inevitability of the free gear being deleted in an emergency maintainance in a few hours, those of us who had some fun with our incorrectly-gotten gains in the meantime weren't exactly engaging in rampaging evil. It's like rushing the boss with all guns blazing when you know you've got a savegame to fall back on. Who cares? Enjoy it while you can, it's only temporary.
