Searching indicates that this isn't a term. Searching gets mountains of false hits, and even searching in GScholar most hits are either completely spurious or are for the book White Market Drugs, which is about drug industry abuses, not economics. One reference from the Von Mises Institute isn't enough. Also, the article, when stripped of its explanation of other "off-white" markets, it's just a definition.
