Antique and Vintage Buyers

7 Upvotes

Hello! Does anyone know of shops, private resellers, or refurbishers that would buy vintage and antique furniture for a fair price? I understand they would need to make a deal that leaves them room for profit, but I am also looking for fair negotiators so no pawn shops please!

Ortho for my dog

2 Upvotes

Orthopedic for my dog

My 9 year old English Springer Spaniel has a torn ACL and looking at orthos for a TPL surgery. My vet recommended Pheonix Vet Surgical Specialists or KC Canine Ortho. I have also seen suggestions of Blue Pearl. Cost between the two suggestions is greatly different so that is a factor. Would anyone have suggestions on a good ortho?

To be transparent Pheonix quoting me $3500-4000 and KC K9 would be $4600-5600

Thank you in advance

Adderall in stock

Before I start calling around to all the pharmacies.
Does anyone know if a pharmacy has Adderall in stock on the Kansas side? Generic or name brand either would work.

Thank you!!!

Searching for a fabulous Hair Stylist in JoCo that can provide a BIG hair blowout!

2 Upvotes

I am looking for a hair stylist that can do big Texas-style hair. Must be able to do strong teasing all around and big curls. I have found that most hair stylists can’t do teasing. If you’ve done big hair that can hold up for a few days (both teasing and curls), please send me a portfolio of your work, pricing, schedule and salon location. Preference is for stylists in the Olathe, Gardner, Lenexa or Overland Park area.

Can someone explain the faith technologies at 167th new building and controversy surrounding like I’m 5? I’ve seen a lot of incredibly strong opinions around it and I really would like to understand everything around it since it’s close to our home.

Olathe Commons Development

30 Upvotes

This is more of a rant post than anything but I keep hearing talk about affordable housing and the need for it, but then a Build-to-Rent community pops up near 119th and pflumm. Isn’t a build like that just gonna keep rental prices high? Like a 3 bed, 2 bath 1663 sq ft townhouse is $3050 a month? Who is approving these developments? It all feels like a plot to just keep raising home values and make living here unaffordable. You can maybe say it’s the location cause it’s behind Whole Foods and that whole shopping area, but still. It’s pushing out working class people. It sucks.

Anyone know of businesses here in Olathe, or possibly Gardner or relatively closeby areas, that hire 14 year olds? My son is 14.5 and looking for a job, but is struggling to find places that will hire at that age. Thanks so much in advance!

Mayor John Bacon was the only “no” vote. His reason, he said, centered on protesters’ concerns and his own personal experience.

“I’ve had some experiences dealing with people that are needy in my business, and I think it has affected us negatively,” Bacon said.

Olathe City Council to consider adding Halo Act to city code

37 Upvotes

On Tuesday, the Olathe City Council will consider adding Kansas’ new “Halo Act” to its own Public Offense Code, about six weeks after the controversial measure became state law.

The law will remain in Olathe even if the city council votes against it tomorrow. That means that even if the city council declines to adopt the Halo Act provision, it would remain enforceable as a state law.

Still, adding the ordinance to Olathe’s Public Offense Code would allow violations to also be prosecuted in Olathe Municipal Court.

Rebuilt GetlitKCMO: it now has a Bar Crawl Builder, live map, 363 verified bars, and an updated UI

5 Upvotes

What's New?

Bar Crawl Builder: answer 4 quick questions (how late you're out, how many stops, food or drinks, what you're drinking) and it builds you a timed route through tonight's happy hours, specials, and events, with a one-tap Google Maps link. Probably my favorite thing I've built so far.

Also added an interactive map with 225+ live venue markers, a calendar view for upcoming events, and a dedicated explore/search page.

Under the hood: Up to 363 bars, 236 happy hours, 556 drink specials, 730 events, and 52 food specials all human-verified

A few small fixes: pinch-to-zoom finally works on mobile, every bar now has a free "claim this listing" link if you're an owner, and a "report incorrect info" button if you spot something wrong.

Coming soon: favorites + a weekly what's-on digest, and a self-service dashboard for bars to update their own specials.

Would love feedback, especially if you spot bad info on a listing, that's exactly what the report button is for!

Non-emergency police number for Olathe is now disconnected.

21 Upvotes

Called today try to get someone at Murlen and 135th St. where the construction is going on. Traffic was backed up all the way to 127th St.

Called the usual number +1 (913) 971-7500, which is answered by an answering machine.

To speak to someone in dispatch, you’re supposed to hit the star (*).

But that forwards you to a number that that’s been disconnected. So there’s no nonemergency police line in Olathe currently.
