💡 GCOS Pro Tip
When deciding whether to list an item, ask yourself:
"Would this be something a shopper would be excited to discover at a children's boutique or specialty resale shop?"
If the answer is yes, it's probably a great fit for GCOS.
If you're ever unsure, we'd much rather answer a quick question before you spend time entering the item into your inventory.
