It's been a pleasure trading with your excellent company. Not only has it made the comic book hobby fun for me, I have also discovered stories I never would have seen if it wasn't for your excellent inventory and trading service.
— Phillip K., Astoria, NY
Buddy, It's been nothing but a pleasure buying from you and selling to you this past year. I've stopped using your competitor all-together after dealing with your terrific website, and fantastic, prompt, and accurate buying and selling practices. I wish you and your whole staff a Happy New Year!
— Chris M., Munroe Fallas, OH
I really appreciate y'all taking the time to answer my question. Thanks for everything! I have shopped all the other comic sites online. T***, m***, D***, M***, M***,cs***, T***, and many more, and I can say in all honesty that Lone Star Comics is the very best! Outstanding customer service, excellent prices, accurate grading, unbeatable selection, you have it all! You are the best! Thanks again!
— Mike A., Edenton, NC
I found Lone Star Comics online and noticed they were selling a Radio Orphan Annie booklet. I had several of these that I wanted to sell so I wrote them an email asking if they might be interested. Not sure if I would get any response, as a lot of companies don't answer emails, I was pleasantly surprised to see my email answered, and very promptly. Lone Star Comics asked if I would send some scans of my items to them so they could review what I had to sell. Mr. Buddy Saunders called me within a day of my sending the photos and we made a deal over the phone. Lone Star Comics has done everything we agreed to and more. They acted quickly and it was a very smooth and pleasant transaction. I have found a company with which I will be happy to do business with in the future, whenever I come across comic books or other items of related interest. Lone Star Comics is working hard to please their customers in a time when customer service is all but lost. I highly recommend Lone Star Comics for purchases as well as sales of comics. I don't believe you will find a finer group of people.
— Tom L., Bartlett, NH
Thank you all so very much! You grading is thorough and is more than fair. I look forward to doing business with you in the future!
— David L., Tazewell, VA
Buddy, just a quick note to say thanks for a really good experience in selling my comics. I had also approached a large New York City buying group, but even a week later they had not even responded, although it took you only three hours! Believe me that in the future I will come to Lone Star Comics first. Your professionalism and courtesy are first class, and I greatly appreciate the service. Please feel free to use me as a reference to anyone who might want to know how exceptional you are.
— Craig S., Sugar Land, TX
Thank you, sir! Fastest deal ever! I only submitted my online offer about 3pm yesterday and yet tomorrow your next-day-air payment to me is due to arrive! Lone Star ROCKS!
— William F., Philadelphia, PA
Good morning Buddy, Shane, Este and all. You provided professionally grading for my comics along with a fair offer price. Thank you very much for your valuable time, and especially for the courtesy and friendliness throughout the transaction. Your phone calls and emails were most welcoming and helpful, as well as appreciated. Please consider this note as acceptance of your kind offer. Thank you again and stay well.
— Robert K., Kendall Park, NJ
I am absolutely thrilled with your company. The transaction was flawless at every step. You couldn't have a more fitting name for your business. Mycomicshop.com is now "my comic shop." I will never trade comics anywhere else. Thank you very much for your business and an A++ job!
— Nick C., Hollidaysburg, PA
I have been a customer of one of your competitors for over 20 years. I can remember ordering through their catalogs (pre internet). I would save up my meager allowance to buy an Uncanny X-Men #58 in VG condition, then wait like a loyal hound by the mailbox for three weeks until it arrived. So, yeah, it's been a long time with them. Having said that, and even though it pains me to say it, your competitor is no longer my online comic shop. You, MyComicShop, are now my source for comics. Both you and your competitor have fantastic inventories and prompt delivery, but what sets MyComicShop apart for me is what I get for my money. It's hard to not be a fan of Mycomicshop. You offer better prices under a fairer (is that a word?) grading system. And really, it's as simple as that. Especially in today’s economy, “more bang for your buck” is appreciated. Now, I haven’t been a customer for very long, but I just thought you should know that I’ve switched over, and I thought you should know why. Thanks for letting me rant.
— Aaron F., North Hollywood, CA
Thank you so much for allowing me to trade old (and new) comics with you! Without your trade system, my reading choices would be far more limited. I really, truly appreciate it!
— Mike A., Edenton, NC
Thank you so much for grading theses so fast! I must have thought they were lower quality than they really were. At the grades I submitted, I expected $700.53, but because you upgraded most of my comics, some substantially, the final offer was $1,892.17. Needless to say, I accept!
— John K., Helena, MT
Buddy, I just read your weekly newsletter and saw that you mentioned you were listed on D&B. As you know, I am constantly checking the credit worthiness of current and prospective clients for my own business. As a result, I am a subscriber to the main D&B database, so I figured I'd check out Lone Star Comics for the fun of it. All I can say is you can buy anything from me on credit any time you want. Lone Star Comics has one of the highest credit ratings I have ever encountered on Dunn and Bradstreet. I'll refrain from listing the specifics, as I'm sure you already know them, but if there is anyone out there who has not sold to Lone Star for fear of receiving timely payment, they should know that your credit record is immaculate.
— Howard M., Somerset, NJ
I've done business over the years with many companies. Both local shops and online. Your selection is incredible and your service is great. Your trading system makes it affordable for me to buy comics in a time when I couldn't if I had to pay cash. I thank you so much for being here and upholding all your upstanding business practices. Your search functions are better than many sites. Not only can I search to find my favorite character appearances, I can also search for my favorite artist/writer appearances (Jim Starlin). I can't say enough about how much I appreciate all the people that are involved in everything from the trades I submit to the orders I place to the superb condition in which I receive my orders. Every man and woman in your company is doing an excellent, and really above and beyond, job of making customers happy. I am most definitely one of those happy customers. Keep up the good work. And thank you, each individual member of Lone Star Comics, for contributing what you do to make this the best place to sell/trade/buy comics.
— Shawn B., Oklahoma City, OK
Hi Buddy, the check arrived today as promised. I want to thank you for your prompt response and professionalism throughout this entire transaction. If this is any indication of the service you provide, I will always check Lone Star Comics first before making a comic book purchase or selling comics, as I did in this case. I know we will be doing business together again in the future!
— Bob B., Derby, CT
Doing business with Lone Star Comics was a very satisfying experience. Lone Star Comics will treat you fairly and in a professional manner. I highly recommend them to do business with. I was very impressed. I purchased these comic books (my "treasures") over 68 years ago as a young boy. Unknown to me, all my comic books were saved and carefully stored by my mother. At age 97, my mother left her home due to illness and I rediscovered my comics.
— Guy H., Hamilton, OH
Hi Buddy, just some random thoughts and thank yous I wanted to share. My observations are probably very obvious to many, but for some reason it has just dawned on me what a great service your business has provided for collectors. As you know, in the pre-internet days, it was almost impossible to complete most series, runs, sets or collections--enter the internet! Now a collector has a chance to fill those holes and not depend on one or more local sources or conventions and what they had to offer that particular day (often with attitude). Then you created the fantastic Lone Star Comics business and web site, an honest professional site with a great "want list" feature that improves any collector's chance to fill holes. I have used it repeatedly and with great satisfaction. Your latest buying list and system is a further stroke of genius--the greatest drop-ship option for collectors anywhere! I was talking to my wife about it the other day and feeling great about moving some of my collection your way when it dawned on me that I was not only helping myself, but your business as well, and the end-user collector who I don't even know but who wants these books from you for his/her collection Win-win-win. I'm happy, you are happy, and your customers are happy. Man, this is collecting heaven and a lot of folks, including me, are most appreciative. I know this sounds silly, but there is something wonderfully rewarding and very satisfying about sending you books that someone else needs/wants. Keep up the good work and have a great summer!
— Jordan N., San Carlos, CA
Hello, most of the comics in this collection belonged to my aunt. It's now time to let them go. Also, your web-site is fantastic! It was so much fun looking up all the comics. However, as most novices, my grading skills are probably not good. I'm really anxious to find out how close I came to your grading. Anyway, thanks so much again for this opportunity, and I hope you can take my comics. I certainly will look forward to hearing from you. Thanks so much!
— Barbara N., Hayfield, MN
Buddy - After several comic submissions to you, this was the first time I sent a batch to you that I hadn't had time to grade. I took a chance and offered an approximation of their worth to the buyer I dealt with, based on some minimum prices that (thanks to your online submission system) I knew you'd pay. I just had to write to tell you how pleased I am with your thorough, fair grading, and your generous buying offer. While a couple of the comics were over graded by me, several ended up being graded by your experts much higher than I'd anticipated. Your final offer pleased me to no end. Your constant ability to buy at very liberal percentages of guide, along with the speed of your "cash-in-a-flash" option (I highly recommend it to anyone planning on selling), never cease to amaze and please me. I look forward to many future dealings with Lone Star Comics.
— Gary M., Huntington, WV
This is my first time visiting your website. I have found it to be a wonderful experience. Your site is extremely detailed and informative. It is the best site for comic book sales I have encountered on the web.
— Richard D., Pittsburgh, PA
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
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
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
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
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, 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
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
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
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
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
