Half is a big drop, but half of a huge number is still a huge number. What was your message volume before the fee, like 20 back and forths per order or more like 60? And did the fee actually filter out the tire kickers, or did it just scare off some real buyers too? The part I'd worry about is whether the people who pay $75 up front expect way more hand holding since they feel like they bought something. Have you tracked your close rate since adding it, or just the message count? Curious if the fee pays for itself in saved time or if you're just trading messages for refund requests.
