Account #11 is very likely too, indeed. A very old account that was recently active.
The "frowning upon sales" has to do with buying accounts for trust, Activity or post history for signature campaigns. A 6 years old Newbie account has neither trust nor activity, it mainly has nostalgic value.
If someone is willing to pay for that, I'd say is a great way to show he likes the forum, and I see no reason to frown.
