For such items with low demand, which we will not be able to re-sell, the proprietary pricing algorithms of momox will calculate an equivalent low purchase price. In addition, momox can only accept a certain percentage of these articles in a single basket. Therefore please be aware that sales with an unusually high proportion of low-price items could be rejected, and sellers who repeatedly create such baskets may be excluded from generating further offers.
