1. Please update this
section to provide investors with disclosure similar to that contained in
your description of
your business model on page 93 where you state that you "concluded
that we are principal
in the sale of part(s) and assemblies that use our network of third-
party manufacturers . .
..." Please ensure that the disclosure in this section clarifies that
transactions occur
between you and the buyer, as opposed to between the buyer and seller,
and fully explains the
liability and risks that you take on in connection with each order.
2. Please indicate whether
your reference to 43,000 buyers and 5,000 sellers is to unique
buyers and sellers.

manufacturing
marketplace (ex: revenues, number of buyers, etc.).

indicate that you will use

8. We note you discussion of customer acquisition cost and buyer lifetime
value. Please
disclose the expenses included in "sales and marketing spend
attributed to buyer
acquisition" that is used in your calculation of CAC. Please also
disclose how you
calculate LTV, as the current reference to Monte Carlo simulations of
Markov chain
stochastic models is unclear. Please describe the calculations so that
investors understand
the significance of the LTV/CAC ratio you present. Please also
disclose how you
calculated the ratio for the year ended December 31, 2020, and whether
this ratio is
comparable to the ratio for prior years.
9. Please disclose what it means where you provide the number of sellers
that have used your
platform during the last twelve months, as it is unclear what "used"
refers to in this
context. Please also clarify whether you include sellers that are
approved to manufacture
a product as well as sellers that have used your seller services, as
we note your definition
of "seller" on page 1 includes both. If so, please indicate whether a
seller that falls within
both categories is counted twice, and indicate the percentage of
sellers using seller
services that are included in the numbers for December 31, 2019 and
2020. We note in
particular that you launched seller services in 2019 and 2020.
10. Please define the term "active sellers" and explain how it differs
from your use of the term
"sellers."
