Underground Market shuts down

http://unground6baopdio.onion/ :

As this site had not enough customers, we decided to switch it off. Thanks to all of you!!

More specifically, I think they shut down yesterday:

UM was announced 4 months ago by /u/UndergroundAdmin.

My crawls indicate it never got any traction (my last one, 2014-08-24, showed ~5 active sellers with ~43 listings). The forum has been down for almost a month. It's unclear whether they took deposits with them, but I suppose only the 5 sellers would know. RIP UM.

I guess they were too undergound, nobody heard of them.

If they release an album, I'd buy it.

So anyone know what they could have done better?
