LIberty On 4th Street

Very cute store but unfortunately poor customer service and will not be returning. I’m not sure if the old man that works there is the store owner or not, but he was incredibly rude, unhelpful, and made the energy very uncomfortable. I asked to see what seemed to be a vintage Chanel bag hanging on a high place I couldn’t reach or see clearly. His response was «I’m not going to take it down because you’re not going to buy it.» Absolutely disrespectful.

Not one of the better vintage stores on 4^th street.
The mix is a little different — for women, it’s just one rack of vintage dresses (some of them were really great!), and then a small rack of new vintage style items. Men have more racks of stuff available to them — shirts, jackets, and a LOT of T-​shirts with holes in them (???).
There’s a section of rockabilly music in the back (CDs & records), if you’re into that.

This is another neat shop along 4^th street that carries a lot of neat vintage items but my favorite part about this spot are the old comic books in the back. Friendly service and no complaints.

I love the clothes and jewelry and the whole rockabilly style. But the guy here was extremely rude and insulting today. My stepdad asked for the price of a jacket and we almost got kicked out because we supposedly had a bad attitude. He was the one insulting my stepdad and me. All we did was ask for a price. I don’t think I’ll be coming back again soon. If you’re going to be insulting people then don’t be a customer service salesperson.

My husband and I decided to go here based on Unilocal reviews. I just received a record player and needed to stock up on some records. My husband found this place, told me what everyone else said, so I was in. Noone mentioned that this place is like a shrine of Viva Las Vegas merch. Kind of sad. I understand a lot of people can’t make it out to Viva, but why become the store for all things Viva?
I looked through the records, all new records of rockabilly groups… not what I was looking for. This place kind of reminded me of the Rockabilly version of Hot Topic. I liked a couple of the dresses I saw, but then again, halfway through the rack, Viva stuff. I was over it, so we left.

I liked this place. The selection was fun, and the music was great. They had awesome tshirts and great jewelry. I would give it a 4.5– and here’s why:
I shop high and low– and whenever I find cool shades/​glasses I buy them. I found basic cat-​eyed-​ish glasses for only $ 12 dollars. I ended up paying about 30 dollars because I bought a ring. (Which was expensive– but you’d expect that from a vintage shop) My only concern is– the place was a bit on the pricey side– but again– it’s a vintage shop, so just come prepared. Other than that, I definitely want to come back and browse through all the cds and tshirts they have!

i haven’t had a chance to go back to the store since my last review… my husband changed barbers and i used to shop while he got his cut (that’s right fellas, i’m married, wah wah…) but i will. why am i giving it 4 stars? because the owner addressed my complain immediately and handled me with care. so i promised her i would and i still haven’t, but her efforts haven’t gone unnoticed… so til now, 4 stars it is. the 5^th will be saved for when i return

By far my favorite shop on Retro Row! They not only have adorable clothes and accessories but a killer music selection! They are always very friendly and helpful at Liberty Vintage and that says a lot more than some of the other shops that tend to be snooty on Retro Row

This may seem horrible, but I’m leaving the exact same review for a few places on the shop strip in Long Beach because they are basically ALL THE SAME, just with different names outside.
All overpriced «vintage» clothes. Why pay nearly full price for a used jacket or shirt? Yeah right.

As much as I like to fancy myself the kind of gal who shops around for Betty Draper-​esque dresses at vintage shoppes (yes, with two p’s and an e). Alas, in reality I’m not that gal. I’m the gal who goes to those stores and even if I miraculously find something that fits me at some other shop, there’s no way in hell I can afford $ 225 for a dress that I’ll wear once.
Enter Liberty on 4^th. I mainly get t-​shirts here. And boy, oh boy do they ever have a t-​shirt selection. Okay, it’s not racks upon rack upon racks. But the few racks they do have are chock-​full of pretty awesome tees — from kitschy to vintage to band. This is your place.
They do have a decent amount of other vintage/​vintage-​inspired for decent prices. And if you’re at all into rockabilly, this is your place.
I was super impressed by their jewelry and accessories on my most recent visit though. They have loads of earrings and rings for a mere $ 5 in addition to tons of necklaces for less than $ 20. I snagged some cute plastic heart earrings and am already eager to head back and grab some more.

I really love this store. It’s a mix of vintage/​retail/​cd & music. It’s a fun store with great pieces. The prices can be a little high sometimes but for the most part, you can find something great for a decent price. Plus the girl that works there is super kick ass.

I have been to Liberty several times to buy tickets to various shows from Big Ed. Everyone in the store is great except the one guy everyone seems to complain about. I had the pleasure of making his acquaintance as well. While buying Tickets for the Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly Weekender. The guy in question gave me a sideways glance and asked me if I knew what I was buying tickets for. I guess he figured since I was in gym clothes and not in vintage clothes I didn’t belong (I was on my way to the gym). I quickly told him I have been to every weekender for the past 11 years and you don’t need to dress in vintage clothes 24 hours a day to appreciate the music. I was not about to wear chucks and cuffed jeans to the gym. I quickly paid for the tickets and left the other merchandise I was about to purchase on the counter for him to restock. I mentioned this to Big Ed several weeks later while buying tickets to another show and he apologized for the other guys attitude. Liberty lose the guy no one likes and your customers will appreciate it. If it was not for Mr. Popular I have given Liberty 5 stars.

This place is awesome. Got some very cool Tres Nior Sunglasses for my fiancée and myself. Staff is very friendly and helpful. will be back very soon!

KICK ASS 50’s and 60’s CDS! THEY SELL CD’S HERE! in the back, super cool guy has a great collection. RockaBilly and more fun tunes.
Great store.
Cool accessories and vintage clothes.
My boyfriend bought a CD here, and the people here were really nice. Fun cute jewelry. I don’t buy vintage clothes, cuz it’s a pain in the ass to find stuff my size. I’m a size 12. Get over it.
But I’d go here to check it out again. Found some awesome jewelry and finds, and cute sunglasses, and awesome shoes.
Check it!

Some nice and cool retro things here but my experience quickly went downhill when the (presumed) owner started talking shit about a couple of customers who tried on clothes and left with buying nothing. Basically accusing them of shoplifting. Then he briefly made eye contact with me and gave me a fat stinkeye. So I peaced out of there. I saw the same customers down the street at the Vintage Collective and the clerk was being friendly and talking to them LIKE THEY WERE ACTUAL HUMAN BEINGS.

I found the PERFECT dress here for the Unilocal Beehives and Skinny Ties party. At $ 50 for a single dress, it seemed that the prices here were really high, but especially in hard economic times, it’s crucial to support small local businesses, so I’m glad to say that I shopped here.
To be completely honest, I hate shopping vintage– something about the musty, dirty smell combined with the futility of digging through racks and racks of clothes to find a ton of perfect stuff that is NEVER in your size. This store was really pleasant to browse through, though. No hassling by the shopgirl, I was left to myself, which I like a lot.
I was between two dresses and in the end the cashier helped me to choose one– she complemented me on one of them extensively, so I knew that was the one to get.
Again, the dress was $ 50, which was a little hard to part with, but when it’s perfect, it’s perfect, and now I never have to buy another period dress again– I’ll have one forever… as long as I don’t gain any weight– this one fit like a glove!

I found the raddest sweater dress in here yesterday… and… I have to agree with the other Unilocalers complaints of the store being a little over priced. My dress was $ 30 and some change. that was on sale)… BUT, I don’t give two shits. If something looks great on me regardless of the price… IT’S MINE! I really didn’t find much other than a cute top that had the Chevron stripes on it but the color was a little too bright for me so there wen that. The rest of the stuff in here was like shirts with prints on them. Tons of pin up like stuff. Sorta reminiscent of something that Siren would sell… But, there were some cute pieces here and there.
They do have only one mirror which is in the dressing room. So, if it’s busy you would have to wait… Towards the back of the store they have a section for music. I didn’t really browse through it. I just glanced and it seemed to be older groups. So, I don’t think that they would have MGMT or The Go Team here. Oh, the selection of vintage and vintage inspired hats are way cool… And the jewelry! The gal that was working was really cool. We both shared a love for vintage owls and vintage clothing! Super friendly chick!

Give me liberty or give me death or actually, just give me cool vintage stuff to buy and traipse around town in and I will be a happy camper.
This store seemed to have a really nice array of stuffage. I saw a few cute dresses, a couple cute purses, but as the other reviewers point out, it was a little on the pricey side. Not break the bank, bend me over a Ford pickup truck unreasonable, but a potential ouch to the olé wallet.
I’d totally pop in again if I was on the block, but I have to say I thought La Bomba was a better bet.

I did the 4^th street crawl today. Liberty was the only store I found ANYTHING at. I’m a small, but a weird small because nothing ever really fits. Everything I tried on here fit!
I liked that it wasn’t all used clothing.
Hot as hell in this store though and I really wish they had more accessories. The prices were pretty good compared to the stores around it. Still a little high though: shirts 20+ dresses 30+

I think this is the place that’s overpriced, not Meow. it’s a mixture of vintage and new, with a few accessories thrown in. The new here doesn’t really appeal to me, but when i find something vintage I like, I can’t even bring myself to try it on due to the price.
I always come in because the window always says «SALE», but I’ve never actually found the sale.
