Well it is frowned upon, but not in an official manner...

This is just another example of why the TOS needs to either change to
specifically address for sale posts in non-market groups, or that
official words from Todd need to be made to the effect that while it is
preferrable to keep the market traffic to the appropriate groups, they
are not strictly forbidden.
I for one am getting tired of folks appointing themselves "guardian of
the rules" and then not even citing folks for violations of rules that
are even rules.
I think Todd is intending on changing the rules to discourage for sale
postings in non-market groups, but they haven't been formalized yet (and
I've been calling for some time for them to be formalized).
Just my two bullets...
