3.8.4.335 and other earlier versions
Add a "control" shoppergroup
Set this (along with any other shoppergroups) on the user account
Assign this shoppergroup to the product
Product is also assigned to a category
Product works as expected
It does not show in searches or direct url or category pages for accounts without the shoppergroup assigned
