We buy comic collections in Durham
Selling your comics in Durham is easy with a local buyer. From the historic Market Place, Saddler Street and Silver Street in the city centre out to Gilesgate, Neville's Cross, Framwellgate Moor and the surrounding County Durham villages, I can come to you within a few days. Send a few photos, get a straight offer based on current prices, and I'll arrange collection directly.
A historic city with a big student turnover
Durham's medieval Market Place — with its Victorian indoor market trading since 1851 — has been the city's retail heart for centuries, and the independent shops along Saddler Street, Silver Street and Elvet Bridge have long included the kind of places collectors love. The huge student population around the university and the Bailey also means a constant churn of people moving in and out, which has a way of shaking interesting collections loose.
Whether it's a collection built up over a lifetime in the county or books being cleared from a family home, Durham has produced some lovely finds. The older Silver and Bronze Age material in particular is exactly what I'm keen to buy.

Why sell to Retro Relics Comics?
Most options for selling comics in Durham mean a high street shop offering a fraction of value, or a buyback site that doesn't really know your books. Retro Relics is different — offers come from live Whatnot and eBay sales data, so you get today's genuine price.
You deal directly with Lee throughout — a real North East collector, not a call centre. I understand your books' value and treat them, and you, with the respect they deserve.
