I think its a good idea. I am a new buyer and my opinion means very little around here buuut i am giving it anyway. I think it is a smart approach to weeding out bad apples.

No new sellers = market monopoly for current sellers + no chance  of lowering prices due to lack of competition...  Great if your a seller now, sucks for buyers.  Geez, back to basic business school for anyone that thinks any different lol..

New sellers just gonna have to prove themselves like the old sellers have over time... 

Besides, FH would just be flooded with new "stores"...  several sellers brazenly have other torhosted sites that sell the same thing cheaper than here saying "buy here if you want my same product cheaper" to avoid the commission, which sucks ass ...  After all the work these brilliant folks put in they should get their commission!

It would be prudent to direct your attention to the following thread about why more sellers is good for sellers especially and buyers too at this time:

So what, is it just a set price now or are there no new vendors being accepted? Seems curious to do with the upcoming fee increase. I would think SR would want new blood to replace the old vendors that will leave over the fee hike.
