It's a great store, very nostalgic! We don't live close, but we'd be happy to make the drive back!

I offered them 70% which I deem fair, as Ive gone to plenty of card shows and 70 is the lowest most vendors go, They offered me 45%. I should of ran, but I am currently not proud to admit I am desperate for the money. We settled at 52%, and they claimed all these reasons why they couldn't give me 70%, such as condition, shipping, labor etc. Long story short I'm writing this review because they took my ETBS and listed them ABOVE market, when they claimed they couldn't offer me 70% because of "condition," and they would have to list them BELOW market, they are scammers. I knew I should have ran, but again, I needed the money and didn't think. Go anywhere else you can in KC that's collector friendly.

Hiles Two is yet another gift shop that appeals to this bracket of consumer, those who long for Christmas year round so they can buy and show off their holiday "spirit" to anyone who might drop by. Hiles specializes in hand blown ornaments, mainly by Christopher Radko, and show off beautifully decorated christmas trees. They also have a baby section, with toys, clothes, accessories and more. Very distinct clothing sections for boys and girls, in fact, in everything they sold baby-wise. A bit pricey for the merchandise, but it was overly cutesy--so some might call them unique. The staff was available, but not ready to go out of their way to help you.

It's the post-Halloween season and from now until December 26th stores like win the attention of…read moremany. People need fake trees, ornaments, children-sized Santa dolls, holly and mistletoe and people get it everywhere, but no one does it better than this place. It is its lot in life and while places like Hallmark sell Christmas in all forms too, it does not sell it 365 days a year - that's where Holiday Magic comes in. I had to wait to speak to the manager for 30 minutes yelpers, 30 MINUTES. He was that busy - the lines were winding around the store, almost out the door. I had to wait my turn because people buying for Christmas can get a little crazy, you know - they were staring at me all wide eyed thinking I was trying to cut in. No - I just wanted to ask the manager how he managed to stay open for the entire year. But I got my answer without having to ask him anything. This store has insane foot traffic - AND according to the man, it was a slow day! It's at the heart of Crown Center and one of the first shops people go into when they visit because it's located at the top of the escalator between the first and second floors. There has been a Christmas-themed store open at this exact location for about 20 years - so if anyone wants to run a business that is seemingly untimely 10 months out of the year - these are the people to talk to. Once it was my turn to talk with the most popular man in Crown Center - he told me that ornaments were statistically (and I don't know where he got this information) purchased randomly more than any other item. He was saying, in other words, that people with no intent to buy anything would end up forking over cash for an ornament over anything else! That's crazy! But people are crazy and it works - the crowds made it look like Christmas was tomorrow. The owner's are not against selling a few other things not under the specification of holiday merchandise. In the very front, there was a tree decorated with Halloween ornaments and Halloween napkins were on a side table next to rows and rows of other Halloween decorations (I went to the store on Halloween) and people were emptying this part of the store for last minute things. In one of their many windows, they fashioned an entire Irish Christmas display to pull people inside based on the common heredity in Kansas City (a very smart move). I've already made a promise to return to buy a few Irish ornaments I feel my collection is lacking. It's very smart of them to headline this. While talking to the owner, he revealed to me that the new Christmas store in Town Center Plaza (3 French Hens) was opened by the same person who used to manage Holiday Magic - and having been to both, I can clearly see that this store is the better of the two. It has four times the merchandise and it has more options than just trees and ornaments. It's just as pricey as 3 French Hens - but better worth your time and more suiting to a variety of holiday needs for people (remember: 3 French Hens is for a merry Johnson County Christmas while Holiday magic is for a merry Kansas City Christmas).
