aging brand new amazon seller account

Is aging a brand new amazon seller account necessary or should i just go balls deep?

[Gamefreak]

go balls deep... aging is not necessary on amazon at all. Start off slowish unless you are selling via FBA or until you get at least a couple of positive feedback

Aging is not needed for Amazon - work on getting feedback and keeping metrics well

The latter is the way!

Wear protection though!

That was a fun morning analogy

It is like:

Brand new (may get rolling 14 days reserve) < Aging brand new < Aging brand new with selling history

Rolling reserve seems standard these days...

Metrics are extremely important on Amazon, in fact probably most important thing on that platform.

Is this valid even if you are selling name brand merchandise? It seems like it triggers questions from Amazon regarding authorization to resell and etc on new accounts that start selling those kinds of items. I've never had a problem with established accounts, but new accounts go under review and Amazon even asks for letter of authorization to sell those brand names. Any input on that?
