We buy comic collections in Gateshead
Selling your comics in Gateshead is straightforward with a local buyer. From the town centre and the famous Metrocentre at Dunston out to Low Fell, Felling, Whickham and Blaydon, I can come to you within a few days. Send a few photos, get an honest offer based on current selling prices, and I'll arrange collection directly from your door.
On the doorstep of one of the UK's biggest shopping centres
Gateshead is best known to shoppers for the Metrocentre — one of the largest shopping and leisure centres in the country since it opened in 1986 — and the town's cultural landmarks like the BALTIC, the Sage and the Angel of the North have put it firmly on the map. Just across the Tyne from Newcastle's comic hub, plenty of Gateshead collectors have been picking up books from both sides of the river for years.
That means there are some great collections sitting across the NE postcodes here. Whether it's a few boxes from the Metrocentre era or a lifetime's run, those Bronze and Copper Age books are exactly what I'm after, and I'm happy to come and take a look in person.

Why sell to Retro Relics Comics?
Most options for selling comics in Gateshead mean a shop offering a fraction of value or a buyback site with no real knowledge of your books. Retro Relics is different — offers are based on live Whatnot and eBay data, so you get a genuine current price.
You deal directly with Lee — a real North East collector, not a call centre. I know what your books are worth and I treat them, and you, with respect.
