It should be no surprise to anyone that coronavirus has affected some of the global trade and specifically slowed down the e-commerce industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since we were facing increasing difficulty to source and fulfil our orders, we had stopped advertising some of our stores by end of January where product sourcing had become difficult. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But even though we had stopped the ads, there were still shipping delays for the orders that we had already received. By last week, after a three week break, we had made alternate arrangements for our product sourcing and resumed partial advertising operations for the affected stores. However, today we received an advertising delivery penalization. This has caused us to stop ad-ops one more time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
