Item for sell

I was always under the impression this is wrong grammar.

I have an item for sale.

Not:

Helps Fedex system down?
got tracking number from sell but it doesn't show anything

But using SELL in this manner is becoming more and more rampant. Is it proper grammar?

LOL HAHAHA err didn't sleep until 4 teh me too lazy for proper words
 
that is very improper grammar.

maybe more and more sellers are foreign and it has nothing to do with it becoming more mainstream. maybe the chinatown trade has since become an online dealy instead?
 
for sale, not for sell. sale is a noun and sell is a verb.

for example, you can't say for run, for jump, for buy. you can add -ing and make it legit: for running, for selling, for buying.
