Dear Sellers,

Our earlier announcement on the fee revision has received a lot of response from our members. We appreciate the feedback from you and look forward to your continued support in building a vibrant marketplace.

We expect that the fee revisions will actually lead to many members increasing their usage of certain features on the site and thus improving upon their conversion rates. While there might be a marginal increase in cost for some members, we feel that this is required in order to build a popular & thriving marketplace.

In view of the above, we would like to remind & confirm on:
