    I'm just wondering is there any websites where you can buy comics nice and cheap.

    Is there much of a difference, price wise, in th US compared to us??

    I'm sick of having to pay so much in forbidden planet.

    Thanks.

    Please check in this thread

    You will find people who sell comics and you can also mostly buy direct from the comic manufacturers such as Marvel etc in subscription form.

    Thanks

    I suppose stalls will sell them cheaper. I wouldn't really be into subscriptions though because I only really buy collections/graphic novels (Preacher/dark knight returns/Batman: year one/V for vendetta).

    I like comics but i'm not really into Marvel stuff(apart from vertigo), i'm into more pf the darker stuff.

    www.newenglandcomics.com

    Only gripe is they ship monthly, so you'll have to spend much of the month cold turkey :)

    newenglandcomics have a good few back issues but for the rarer stuff then you're probably best looking on ebay.

    Are the trades that much more expensive to buy in Dublin?

    Did you actually look through all of those links though? Diamond comics do mostly constant and some back issue comics. Mile High comics would do everything. Dynamic Forces would do a lot of specialised stuff and yes a lot of TPBs (trade paper backs).

    Mile high comics look pretty good.

    I like the way you can buy them in different conditions.

    DHL delivery seems pretty reasonable aswell($8-EUR6.34)

    Dynamic forces seem to have a good selection, shame about the expensive delivery.


    Thanks

    Not sure how many peopel know, but other realms have their own site now, and they do sell stuff, so if you have a credit card check it out cause they deliver anywhere in Ireland for only a tiny bit,
