You must buy and sell Vanguard ETF Shares through Vanguard Brokerage Services (we offer them commission free online) or through another broker (which may charge commissions). See theVanguard Brokerage Services commission and fee schedulesfor limits. Vanguard ETF Shares are not redeemable directly with the issuing fund other than in very large aggregations worth millions of dollars. ETFs are subject to market volatility. When buying or selling an ETF, you will pay or receive the current market price, which may be more or less than net asset value.
