Allets posted a notification on its website on Friday that it would halt operations by the end of August due to "unavoidable operational issues," while most sellers on Allets were awaiting settlements for July. The incident, which followed the ongoing liquidity crisis at TMON and WeMakePrice, has further fueled concerns over the cash crunch at the Qoo10-owned marketplaces affecting smaller players.
