Mine was in /Applications/Text and was upgraded when I bought the MAS version.

I'd be willing to bet that once you buy something, it can be moved and
will still be updated. It seems like the store identifies applications
not by path, but by Bundle ID and version. This is why some apps are
located and listed as installed, but won't upgrade. They're found, but
the MAS knows you haven't purchased a MAS license.
