Are we allowed to advertise a Mac product you are selling on MacRumors Forum?

I was trying to find some information in the rules, but failed.
 
From the forum rules:
Selling outside the Marketplace. All threads offering items for sale or trade, asking to buy items, or asking for pricing advice on items to be sold must be posted in the Marketplace forum, which is accessible only to qualified members and subject to additional rules; see the Marketplace Rules for details. Members not eligible for the Marketplace forum may not start threads elsewhere for such purposes.

Eligibility for Marketplace:
Before you can access the Marketplace forum, you need a minimum post count of 250, as displayed in your User Profile, and you must have been a MacRumors member for at least 180 days (about 6 months). Posts in certain forums (e.g., the "Politics, Religion, Social Issues" and "Console Games" forums) do not count toward this total. Marketplace posts do not count toward your total post count either. Details are in the Forum Rules. If you start a "for sale" thread or make other Marketplace-type posts in another forum to avoid the minimum requirements, your thread/posts will be deleted.
 
alternatively, if you're willing to ship overseas people on ebay will pay quite a lot
 
Just a slight heads up, eBay and Craigslist are almost always going to generate higher profits, unless you are selling something that is relatively inexpensive in which case eBay fees might make it equal with what people are willing to pay on here. But... for the most part, the other two generate more money. It's generally a lot less of a hassle here...
