Abstract: A certain inequality conjectured by Vershynin is studied. It is proved that for any $n$-dimensional symmetric convex body $K$ with inradius $w$ and $gamm{a}_n(K)leq1/2$ there is $gamm{a}_n(sK)leq(2s{)}^{w^2/4}gamm{a}_n(K)$ for any $sin[0,1]$. Some natural corollaries are deduced. Another conjecture of Vershynin is proved to be false.
