Blizzard had a change of mind.
The GM team and the Dev team are seperate teams.
While this has been covered fairly well, I did want to correct this point.
This is not true, nothing has really changed.
You still are not allowed to sell out of game things for ingame gold. The new pet will be a tradeable IN GAME item, and does not break this longstanding rule at all.
If it doesn't have something that can be handed to you ingame, don't use ingame gold for it. In simplest terms that's probably the best rule of thumb.
