If you question his prices he snaps and tries to act like he is the knower of all things, even if you can provide facts behind your argument.

Let me start of by saying this. I am and always have been a HUGE fan of this establishment . The…read moreoriginal store was called Frick & Frack owed by Lisa Frick and Charlie Frack. I met these two when I Was 13yrs old. They had the absolute best tie dye at the lake and it was then and there I fell in love with Tie Dye. I have been a loyal customer for the past 33yrs that's something I appreciate as a small business owner myself. Eventually things will and do change. Trends change, employees change, owners changes, name changes but the one thing that has always stayed the same is the level of customer service I received every single time I was there. Fast forward to 2 weeks ago. I went in to browse and was greeted upon entry. I was there for a gift and needed some assistance so the young lady with dark hair came to assist. But instead of getting great customer service, I received a rude employee who refused to let us actually touch and look at things. She said the reasoning was due to the pandemic and she would have to sanitize everything we touched as soon as we left. Ok understandable however would that not fall into her job duties as an employee? If I were that employee and someone was looking to purchase a specific gift for someone special I would have sanitized everything in the place to accomplish two things: 1. Doing a job I'm being paid to do 2. Having that customer leave with a positive shopping experience. THE BONUS........... Repeat Customer! I did end up making a small purchase out of necessity and here we are 2 weeks later and it's broke. Obviously not the quality of products I'm use to purchasing there. So as a local resident and a year round purchaser I will have to contemplate other options going forward. Sad day in deed

The owner is an active part of the gem/rock community and is constantly finding new and unique pieces. Prices are affordable and you are sure to find something to bring home. From big AWE inspiring pieces to small, pocket sized pieces, there is something for everyone. Now, I haven't looked through the records portion, but there look to be several options there as well. We drive up from South KC quite a bit and will keep coming!

Vintage is a business where the people who run the store and the customers generally have the same…read morepassions and love the same stuff. That's certainly the case with Planet Queen's proprietors. They know music and know it to a degree that would be frightening were it not instead so awesome. Terrible movies? Well yes, those too. Terrible TV shows? Again, YES! The inventory is organized intuitively and is both easy to navigate and constantly growing. Be sure to ask them about the HALLMARK MOVIE that filmed across the street from them. Oh, and ignore the 1-star review from the guy named Gordon. He's a literal Old Crank who elects to try to sabotage the businesses of people he doesn't care for. Read the review and you'll see he's never been in the place. Lame.

I am only reviewing this after I have fully picked through all the good records. I know records…read moreare dead (long live records), but these are only 50 cents, and sitting on the first stack of records was a copy of Orff's Carmina Burana by some big choir director I can't remember, but it was a big name, and I thought, "what else might I find?" I found a bunch of other stuff, and I can't disclose, because it would give away how cool everything is. This is a store, so to speak, run by the University of Missouri libraries, where duplicate records and VHS and CDs are sold. I was told by the helpful staffperson that about 10 seconds after the advent of CDs, the university radio station chose to sell all their vinyl, and the university library bought them all up. So now they sell off the duplicates and keep the rest for posterity. And you, the state taxpayer (or out of state visitor), benefits. I think 50 cents is a deal, and all the records I got were very well kept. Some didn't have a interior record sleeve, but they all showed very little wear and tear. Most of it is classical, but there is about half which is not. Of course you won't find the latest Radiohead album here, but if you're looking for something that a university radio station might play back in the days of records (Dave Brubeck?), then there's a good chance it's around.
