Mycomicshop is great. I will only buy comics here and sell/trade here. You guys are right, you are better than eBay for buying/selling/trading comics.
— William B., Miami, FL
I'm ready to sell another batch of comics to you. Selling my comics with you the first time was a blast--such an easy process! I'm going to begin sorting more of my comics tonight, but probably won't be finished until tomorrow (have more time then), but I'll definitely be mailing the box (probably a long box) on Wednesday. Thank you again for accepting my comics! I really adore how easy the process is. All I have to do is enter the comics I want to sell in my account database and then your wonderful system just tells me which ones you are ready to buy. I'll be moving soon to Helena, Montana. Once I'm settled there, I am looking forward to using your subscription service because there isn't a comic store anywhere near Helena. Thanks again for such a wonderful website!
— John K., Yuma, AZ
Hello Buddy, I hope you don't mind me writing to you personally about a shipment we just received, but I feel it is necessary to insure that the message and thanks get to you and your entire team. On behalf of myself and my son, I just wanted to convey our thanks for the top notch service, as always. It is refreshing and impressive to see the meticulous care taken on these books. I have never received such service when dealing with other retailers. Please pass this along to the rest of the gang there. My son and I will make it a point to keep doing business with Mycomicshop, the best retailer in the business. You guys are indeed the best. Keep the comics coming and keep up the great work. It is important to us when something special like the Spider-man books come along and we get fantastic copies. Again so many thanks. We look forward to working with Mycomicshop. We are your friends and devoted customers always.
— Richard B., Spokane, WA
Dear Buddy and crew, I've been buying a pretty substantial number of comics from you over the past 6-8 months. I'll be the first to admit it's gotten a bit obsessive--note the number of orders, sometimes multiples per week! That's because your selection blows me away, and I've gotten the bug for Bronze Age keys and semi-keys. Anyway, I've purchased a nicer copy of Amazing Spider-Man 129 recently, and thought it might be time to retire my lesser (but still attractive) copy by trading it to you. I have a lot of mid-to-high-grade Copper Age material that I thought better of listing now, but I will upload later when I hope to have more "good stuff" to offer you. In the meantime, hope my current batch of comics will suit you. By the way, I belonged to your monthly sub service back in the early '80s when Miller's Daredevil was king--seems like a long time ago! Thanks for your time and consideration.
— Paul Y., Nashville, TN
I've been a subscriber with Lone Star Comics for a little over a year now. I've always been completely impressed with your customer service, but your Spider-Man Obama first printing variant offer--offering a copy to your sub customers at the $3.99 cover price-- goes above and beyond. You are really taking care of your loyal customers and I appreciate it. The Obama Spider-Man comic is one of the most talked about comics in the mainstream since the Death of Superman, and it's already selling for very high prices on eBay. It's really refreshing to see a company do something like this to show appreciation for their customers, rather than just focus on making more money. You've certainly insured that you'll have me, and I'm sure a lot of others, as customers for many years to come.
— Jason A., Meadville, PA
Buddy, Thank you for your personal, and as always, courteous response. Even though we have only conducted business electronically and through the postal service, you always make me feel like I’m doing business with a next-door neighbor. I appreciate it. Merry Christmas to you and the entire staff at Lone Star Comics!
— Rod B., Davenport, VA
Hi Buddy, I've been a customer for a couple of years with Lone Star Comics and purchased hundreds (if not thousands) of comics with you over that time through both your subscription service and back issue catalogue. I've been idle over the past month, but it's not because I've jumped ship or stopped collecting comics. Rather, higher education has come calling so I've had to make some cutbacks. Unfortunately, one of the hardest cutbacks I've had to make is my comic collecting. Before Mycomicshop, I struggled with other subscription services that delivered my comic badly damaged. I also had a very hard time finding quality back issues. But Lone Star Comics changed all that. I'd just like to commend you and your entire staff on the excellent job they've done. Your service is among the best I've received with anybody and hopefully you're wonderful site (and stores) will remain active for years to come. So thank you, and hopefully, after life has settled down a little, I'll be able resume my patronage.
— Brandon W., Fort St. John, British Columbia, Canada
Mr. Saunders, I came across an article in a business magazine today and figured out very fast that this could NOT be a coincidence! I was shocked and pleased to find out that I have been communicating with "comic book royalty"! After reading over the article and finding out more about you and Lone Star Comics, I just wanted to tell you that I have a lot of respect for you as a business owner, an educator, and a collector. As a child and teen, I really loved comic books and came close (in my mind) to wanting to work as an illustrator. Since graduating high school and going off to college, I focused my energies elsewhere, but I always maintained a love and appreciation for the mental and creative escape that comics afforded me. Going through the boxes of comics that my brothers passed down to me very recently, it just reminded me of sitting in the local comic shop for hours and hours. What you (and your family) have done by putting the whole process online has allowed me to rekindle my love of comics and take a wonderful stroll down memory lane. Thanks for the trip, and for being so responsive. I can clearly see why you've been as successful as you have. Best of luck with everything, and thanks again for what you've done and accomplished. I'm inspired!
— Paris R., College Park, MD
Dear Mr. Saunders and the Lone Star Comics staff, I would like to thank you for the making the sale of my Amazing Spider-Man collection so easy and enjoyable. I appreciate the fact that not only did you purchase the "key" issues in my Spider-man collection, but that you also bought all my "filler" issues as well. It might not seem like much, but it certainly helped by allowing me to sell everything in one transaction instead of having to go through countless other sales for what may have taken years. I also appreciate your frequent updates on the sale and payment status of our deal as well as repaying me the cost of shipping the comic collection to you. I would highly recommend that anyone wishing to sell a comic book collection (be it large or small) contact you before anyone else. Thanks again!
— Keith S., Dothan, AL
I can't tell you how great it is to find these and then pick them up at your Arlington store. I really appreciate the scans and grading! I have been out of comics for several years but you make it easy to get some great stories and issues. I love your sales and deal (unlike pricing elsewhere that I have found to be very inflated). Thank you. I also wanted to say thank you for how carefully packed my comics are, even though just coming to your nearby store where I pick up. It means a lot and makes me keep coming back. Thanks to Buddy, Judy, and everybody, and especially to Beth.
— Joe G., Arlington, TX
Hey Buddy, A quick note of praise... Recently, I thought I'd check one of your Distinguished Competition's sites to see if they had some of the books on my wish list in stock. The comics were available (in theory) from this other site, so I thought I'd try to place an order. TRY ended up being the operative word! Man, their site and entire store mechanism was a big time disappointment! It was so buggy (and non-user friendly) that I gave up after five minutes. Lone Star and mycomicshop.com all the way! PS: I've started entering a few items in the new buy/trade system. It's great! Can't wait to send you my first group of trade comics.
— John P., West Boothbay Harbor, ME
I wish I had found your buying/trading service YEARS ago! I do my best to grade accurately, but you guys are the very best. I am always satisfied with your decisions. I really appreciate your great business practices! And I really mean it. I run a small business myself, (a meat market) and I know how important customer service is. You guys are TOP NOTCH! Thanks!
— Mike A., Edenton, NC
Buddy, Thanks for taking the time to meet with me. I would rather sell comics to you than in any other way. I trust you, and won't waste your time on common or ordinary collections, but instead offer bigger, better collections like the one you bought Monday.
— Lance W., Austin, TX
Dear Buddy, You are an amazing fellow! In this world of SPAM, SCAM and CON, you stand out as a pillar of integrity, honesty and fairness. I am a first time comics seller. I was looking to sell my small but treasured collection of 154 Golden Age comics. Fellow collectors told me I would be lucky to sell my collection at 20% of Overstreet Guide, and that dealers would grade my comics to their great advantage, certainly not mine. Well, they are eating their words now and shaking their heads. Your grading of each and every one of my comics was fair and honest. And, your offer? WOW! I couldn’t believe my eyes! And couldn’t believe the check when it arrived so quickly at my front door--via next-day-air. I feel truly lucky to have found your website. Through our communication around these comics and our seller/buyer transaction, you have been definitely a person one can trust. It has been a totally refreshing experience to sell you my comic collection. And, even more so, to deal with a business person who loves what he does, respects everyone he deals with, and puts doing the ‘RIGHT’ thing first as “Job One” at Lone Star Comics. Thank you for being who/how you are – You get MY VOTE for Best U.S. Businessman of the Year!
— Timlin B., Fairfield, IA
Hello Buddy, First of all, I just wanted to say thank you for every transaction I have done with you. Buying/selling, and trading with you guys has been a real pleasure. I am
thinking about shifting my collecting goals to original art, and am currently interested in selling my entire comic collection. Since you guys have been great to deal with, I thought I would send you the list first to see if it would be something you would be interested in.
— Andrew K., Alliance, OH
As a young boy I had remembered reading a very old comic in my mother’s cupboard. I was always told to “put that back where you got it.” When I was 32, I saw a 20 second CNN news clip about the most expensive comic book collection ever sold. I was shocked to see the comic I read as a boy--Marvel Comic Vol. 1 No. 1 from 1939. Right away, I called my parents (who had moved twice sense I was a boy). I asked about that comic and told them the story. The said that it was left in the old house so we chalked it up to fate. Well, fate intervened again and the Midwest floods of 2008 brought water to my parent’s basement. As my mother was moving some boxes ahead of the flooding, she found the old comic Marvel No. 1. The next four days I read as much as I could on the internet about comic books in general and Marvel No.1 particular. The most informative web sight was “Lone Star Comics.” I found the staff at Lone Star Comics more than ready to offer their assistance.
Buddy, my point of contact at Lone Star, made me feel very at ease even though I was very uninformed in the process I was undertaking. He was always ready to offer third party points of contact so that I (if I chose) would be able to get a second opinion on any information he was offering me. Because Buddy was so informative, I stuck with him during the whole sale of this comic (one of very few that survived the WWII paper drives). I would like to thank Lone Star Comics for making what could have been a very stressful event into a true adventure.
— Curtis D., Barry, IL
Buddy, I just noticed as I was packing up another box to Lone Star that I have spent the last year buying and selling with an awesome person and his outstanding staff. I am not only happy as a seller to your company, but as a buyer as well. Your organization has an excellence that very few in this business ever achieve. I think we have done around $10,000.00 in cash and trade so far. I look forward to the next $10,000.00. By the way, I will be hunting books at the San Diego Comic Con and would like some advice on what I should look for to buy and trade to you. Any if you'll be there, I would also like to meet you and exchange a Texas howdy. As you know, I am a teacher and life long comic collector and I owned a store while in graduate school. I buy and sell collections for fun and to build my Golden Age collection. I am looking forward to when the Google phone arrives so that I can access the Lone Star Buy list when I am out looking for books.
— Phil H., Carona, CA
Buddy, Thanks for the quick response. I've heard very good things about your honest grading and reliability. This gives me confidence as a seller.
— Mark S., Long Beach, CA
Galactus-proof Packaging, Silver Surfer-speed Shipping, Ant Man-size prices! A Distinguished Web-Site That Practices Above-Average Customer Transactions!
— Terry I., Cloquet, MN
Yes, I approve this trade/sale, and thanks for an all around beneficial transaction! It's always a smooth and satisfactory experience. I also wanted to take the opportunity to mention that I enjoy, and look forward to, the weekly email customer updates that are sent. With all the stuff that must be happening at your stores, it's very cool that you take the time to provide a little glimpse into you folks' lives and some insight into the world of comics as well. Much appreciated!
— Wes H., Phoenixville, PA
This is a full-circle situation for me. As a child I bought Lone Star Comics through the classified ads in the back of Marvel comics at my local drug store. Now I'm attempting to move my family across the country for grad school, but can't afford to do it. I decide to take a look at my old comic collection and I find that Lone Star Comics seems to be the best place to sell comics as well!
— Luca C., Ft. Collins, CO
I have made many comic sales to Buddy over the years. I accepted his cash offer each and every time. Buddy and staff are honest and professional. I guarantee you will have a worry-free transaction when selling your comic books to Buddy.
— Bill Y., Brooklyn, NY
I can't believe how GIGANTIC your company's selection is! I've tried everywhere, including e-Bay, to try and find some of the items which mycomicshop.com has in ample supply. Plus, your site is easy to navigate AND has a responsive and helpful customer service staff. You guys really are the best! Thanks for everything.
— Ryan H., Anacortes, WA
Dear Mr. Saunders, I am overwhelmed with the quick response to the selling of my comics.
And I was amazed at how easy you make the process. And, finally, I was very pleased with your offer. I will be doing more of my comic selling business with you instead of anyone else. Thank you very much!
— Margaret D., North Quincy, MA
Hey everyone, I'm really digging your site and your comic trading service! I think I've now traded well over $1,000 worth of comics with your company, and to be honest, it's a bit addictive. I'm looking forward to more great trades and service!
— Dave H., Palmyra, PA
Dear Buddy, Thank you for your quick response to my inquiry to sell my comic collection. I am pleased to accept your offer. After reading the comments of other sellers, I felt confident to send my comic collection to Lone Star Comics. I was able to choose from several well-explained selling options. I was very satisfied with Lone Star's knowledge, the speed of service, their friendly and professional approach to purchasing comics, and the very fair purchase price that they presented to me. Lone Star Comics exceeded my expectations.
— Robert L., Los Angeles, CA
Thank you so much. I love the sell/trade option on your site. I have used it many times and loved it every time. Not once have I had an offer that I didn't like. Thanks so much for all of your work. I am dropping another batch of comics off at your Hurst Store.
— Matthew S., Bedford, TX
I have been doing business with Buddy and Lone Star Comics for over a year, selling so many issues I’ve lost count. They are bar none the best comic book buyer out there. I’ve always found their service to be fast, efficient and, most importantly, fair. I would highly recommend Lone Star Comics to anyone. If you are looking to sell, you start and end with Lone Star Comics.
— Russell B., Manchester, CT
Thank you for your fair and reasonable offer for my comic collection. I was a bit skeptical at first, sending them all to you, but after reading all of the ratings from others who had sold their collections to you, and how happy they were, I felt much more comfortable sending you mine. Your check arrived shortly after we talked on the phone, with shipping included. It was a pleasure doing business with someone who is honest, and who follows thru as they promised to--so unlike many people and company's are these days. I would recommend anyone to do business with your company, and I will tell other potential comic sellers about your ethical business practices. Thanks again!
— Ted B., Adel, IA
I thought I would just take this opportunity to say thanks for all of the trading in the last few years. It has definitely made our business more profitable, and I am sure it is good for you or you would not continue doing it. We have enjoyed doing business with Lone Star Comics these last few years and look forward to continuing to do so.
— Regan C., Ft. Wayne, IN
Thanks again for all you and MCS have done to help my store grow over these last few years. You've really helped my business grow more than you could ever imagine.
— Rick S., Melbourne, FL
Dear Buddy,
Thank you again for making my first experience with your company such a pleasant one. You were very easy to deal with and it made the sale of my comics very simple. I had been putting off trying to sale them for some time, as I was not sure of their value or where I could even find someone to buy them. After seeing your website, it only took me a short phone call and a couple of emails and I had made $1,400 by selling some old comics! It was a very easy process. Thanks again!
— Richard B., Warner Robins, GA
BEFORE OFFER MADE: Hi, I'm not a collector; these are comics from my childhood that have been stored in a box for about 30 years. Most are, I think, GD to VG, but I'll let you judge. I'm just looking for a fair amount - it appears that if they were all GD they'd be worth about $40. I just don't want to recycle them! Thanks, Steve. AND HERE IS STEVE'S COMMENT AFTER WE MADE OUR OFFER: Dear Buddy, Add me to your long list of satisfied sellers. I gladly accept your offer ($80.12) and look forward to any opportunity to do business with you in the future.
— Steve R., West Seattle, WA
Quite honestly, this is the best comics related buying/selling internet site ever created! Buddy and his staff are to be commended for developing the most efficient way to fill holes in your collection and trade/sell issues no longer desired. Every word detailed in the stated terms and conditions are followed to the letter! I will continue to frequent Lone Star Comics often! (In addition to ordering from our web store, George has sold seven comic lots to us for a total of $4,505.76)
— George M., Frederick, MD
Great prices. I started out intending to make a similar order with your competitors. You had more, for less money, and free shipping on top of that. I won't make the mistake of going anywhere else first next time!
— Jason F., Portland, OR
Fast shipping, great packaging, unbeatable prices! Your web site is remarkably easy to use! I don't even go to my comic store anymore! A big thank you to everybody involved!
— Terry I., Cloquet, MN
Dear Mr. Sanders and the "My Comic Shop" crew, I want to thank you for the fair and generous offer for this latest box of comics that I submitted. Your comic site is my absolute favorite. It is a wealth of knowledge. I am especially impressed with the information you provide about individual issues and the attention to detail that you pay to providing the titles of multiple issue cross-over story arcs. I am extremely confident in your grading and assessment of books that you both buy and sell. I have been in the hobby for over 40 years. I have attended countless conventions and visited dozens of stores, but at no time have I encountered such consistent professionalism, fair treatment, and a general respect for the comics. I look forward to buying and selling to you and from you for decades to come. I enthusiastically recommend you to everyone in the hobby. You have my complete trust and you have earned it. Again, my thanks!
— Jordan N., San Carlos, CA
Your prices are the best I've found anywhere, your grading is excellent, your packing is tight, your delivery times outstrip any other supplier I've used, and that includes ones located thousands of miles closer to where I live, your office systems are user-friendly and efficient, and your website is the most informative and easy to use of any online supplier I've found. In short, if there's a better comic book supplier out there, I've yet to find them.
— Philip S., Devizes, United Kingdom
I love your site, the way I have been treated, and I am in awe of the enormity of the information you offer at the site.
— Jordan N., San Carlos, CA
Lone Star Comics has provided outstanding service and taken all the hassle out of finding and collecting comics. Thanks for your quick response and thanks to everyone at mycomicshop.com!
— Andy P., Ashland, MO
Dear Buddy, I want to let you know that I received a check today for my comic book lot. I wish to thank you very much for your excellent service. What a pleasure doing business with you. Thank you for your dignified, trustworthy dealings. Please look over my next list of comics which I would like to offer you at this time.
— Mark C., Bloomfield, NY
Every time I look at your online buy/trade list, I find more comics that I can trade in. Your system is the best!
— David H., Alexandria, VA
I've sold comics to Buddy and Lone Star Comics twice now. On both occasions, his response was prompt, the grading fair, and the offer more than generous. The process is extremely easy, particularly as I live in the Dallas metroplex area; I simply dropped a box of comics off at one of the Lone Star stores, and the purchase offer arrived via email. After my acceptance, a check followed promptly in the mail.
— Joe L., Allen, TX
I want to thank you good people for helping me achieve something that I yearned to accomplish for years: completing my collection. For years I have been trying to complete my comic collection using sources here in the Philippines, but they either didn't have what I needed or the issues were overpriced. Then I tried the internet and, lo and behold, mycomicshop.com turned up. You accept international credit cards,
shipping is convenient and affordable and my orders come right to my doorstep. It's been over a year and a half since I first ordered from mycomicshop, and your site is still the one I return to.
— Darryl A., Legazpi Village, Philippines
This is the part where I give you one of those user testimonials you have on your site! I accept you very fair offer of $450 cash. Thank you for making buying and selling so easy. The great job you are doing really benefits our entire hobby!
— Jason V., Orinda, CA
Buddy, I want to say how happy I am with the Lone Star Crew. I have completed over 16 buy/sell transactions with you and I came away impressed. I have been collecting and trading comics over the last 40 years and that is saying something about your service.
— Phil H., Corona, CA
Thanks Buddy. I'll accept the cash offer. I wasn't sure what to expect, but your grading is good and your offer is fair. You offered me as much for this small lot as my local shop offered me for my whole collection! I'll be sending you more comics soon.
— Mark K., Seattle, WA
As I mentioned to Matt G. (who graded my comics), your service is EXCELLENT! The trade/sale element is outstanding in it's convenience and opportunity to learn more about the grading process. Will definitely help in future dealings with you and in my evaluation of books for ALL my contacts! Thanks for all, and I approve this trade/sale!
— Wes H., Phoenixville, PA
I just received my first shipment from Lone Star Comics. What can I say but that you guys run a brilliant store! Your website is the most user-friendly I have come across. From searching through your vast stock to completing an order, everything is simply laid out and effective to use. Packaging is another strength. My shipment came half way across the world secure and undamaged. You guys could teach Amazon a thing or two. Finally, your customer service is brilliant. For example, two of the items shipped had defects and Beth, who I e-mailed with questions, was quick to respond, courteous and extremely helpful. The situation was rectified quickly and beyond my expectations. I didn?t realize customer service still existed--it is something of a rarity these days. I will definitely shop from your store again.
— Leon G., Adelaide, Australia
Hi again Mr. Saunders! (I'm beginning to feel like your e-mail pal) LOL! Thank you for the offer, and yes, I accept. I truly appreciate you and your staff. Your offers for each of the lots I've sent have been far better than the offers made by anyone else my father and I contacted. Again, thank you, and I hope everyone has a great weekend!
— Terri S., Pikesville, MD
