This is by far the question we get asked the most and the simple answer is yes. We source much of our stock by buying in bulk from wholesale book suppliers. However, we do also buy larger collections (more than 100) or some more sought after items from private sellers. We buy Commando, Air Ace, War and Battle Picture Library, annuals, holiday specials and more. Please see this article for more detail. If the average condition meets our needs, you are able to accept Paypal as payment and prepared to box them up and send them to us then please do get in touch and provide details of quantity, condition and some photos.

They are then protectively wrapped and dispatched, where possible. in a small box designed to fit through a standard letterbox.
Due to the complexities of shipping rates, customs and taxation, the website is not set up to accept orders from overseas. Brexit terms often make it more difficult to deliver to Europe than other parts of the world. Postage costs can vary significantly. However, we can and have, successfully delivered to many customers worldwide. Please get in touch with any specific requirements and we will be happy to provide a quote.

All of the comics we sell are pre-owned and are not new. We may sell some accessories – bags, boards etc and these would be brand new.
What we mean by these condition states is described in full on our notes on item condition page. In addition to these general descriptors you should also take into account photographs and specific condition notes on each product page.
Absolutely not! At least, not for comics. Stock photos may on occasion be used for some accessories. All listings for pre-owned comics, however, will always include photos of the actual item for sale only. Every photo of a comic for sale has been individually taken and uploaded by ourselves so that you can be absolutely certain that what you see is what you’ll get.
Every comic we have for sale should include at least two photos of the actual item. However, we want our customers to feel confident in what they are buying so please do request further photos if you wish, particularly if considering the purchase of a more valuable item.
We have a large volume of comics available and receive new stock continuously. It takes time to photograph and create a listing for each comic and so it is entirely possible we may have items that are not yet listed on the website. Please feel free to enquire and send us your wishlists.
Please do use our contact form for any queries you may have or use the website comment sections where appropriate. We aim to respond to all queries and comments promptly.
