Trade ins are fine. A contractual commitment to not buy hardware sounds like illegal restraint of trade.

How? It’s a contract. Should I be allowed to pay a landscaper less if I agree to not do part of the work myself?

I don’t understand the desire to tell totally anonymous third parties the terms under which they are allowed to deal with each other.
