How we handle your comics

Shipping

Packed like a collector

Raw books ship bagged & boarded in a rigid comic mailer. Slabs ship boxed with padding. USPS from Honolulu, US addresses only — free shipping over $100, otherwise live USPS rates + $1.50 packing.

Photos

Sample covers on raw books

Photos of raw books may be a sample (stock) cover, marked "Sample Image — Not Actual Item". Graded slabs always show the real slab. Want a photo of the actual copy? Just ask.

Grading

CGC & PSA slabs

Every slab's certification number is on the listing — verify it on the grader's site. Signature Series (yellow label) books are marked SS. Want your own books graded? See PSA/CGC grading.

Comic FAQ

Still have a question? Contact us or visit a store.

How long does shipping to the mainland take?

We ship from Honolulu with USPS and email you tracking as soon as your order ships. Mainland delivery usually takes about 3–7 business days after it ships, depending on the USPS service you choose at checkout.

Orders over $100 ship free within the US. We ship comics to US addresses only.

How do you describe the condition of raw (ungraded) books?

Raw books are sold as described in the listing. Unless the listing says otherwise, new releases are new, unread copies and back issues are used copies in collectible condition. Raw grades are our opinion, not a CGC/PSA grade — if condition matters for a key book, ask us for photos of the actual copy before you buy.

Can I pick up new releases or pre-orders in store?

Yes. Choose store pickup at checkout and we'll hold your books at the store. New releases appear here on their release day. Ask in store about holding your weekly pulls (subscriptions).

What is your return policy for comics?

Comics follow our store policy — see Returns & exchanges.

Is the photo the actual book I'll get?

For graded slabs, yes — the photos are of that slab. For raw books the photo may be a sample cover (it says "Sample Image — Not Actual Item" on it); you get a copy of that issue and variant in the condition described.
