Welcome

This is my disclaimer to this whole deal. 

I do not want people to think that I'm some dealer who knows the ins and outs of antiques.  I learned about antiques from my parents, who have collected antiques since I was young, and from going to the various stores.  The value of an antique is not important to me, and I'm not out looking for something to flip (resell for a profit).  I am out looking for things that I find interesting and want to possibly pass down for future generations. 

The general purpose is not to rip on antique stores or talk up antique stores to the holy pedestal.  The purpose is to show fellow antique hunters new places which might not currently be on their radar and the cool stuff we found there.  We travel all over the KC area (and even south to Arkansas), so there should be a wide variety of shop information.  If you want to know my personal feelings about a location, you should visit my Yelp postings.

If we do not go to stores for a while (we are busy people with our own lives), I will try to include some "rules" that I feel that every antique hunter should follow to make the experience the best one.  That part will be a little more opinionated.

If you know of a great shop I should check out, please feel free to contact me.  We are always in search of a new find.
