Best Online Comic Supplies Shop?

atomslayer · 07-05-2014, 01:45 AM

I am looking for a reliable place to pick up the required materials to bag and board around 200-300 Silver Age comics, where would I go to get the best bang for my buck? And I am assuming it is like sports cards where the stores are all overpriced compared to online, but if that assumption is wrong let me know.

Thanks!

BCW supplies for bags. I order a Case and get free shipping.
Boards i just buy locally on sale as shipping is expensive on them.
After shipping boards are cheaper locally.

Ebay. You cannot get it cheaper anywhere else. I have a wholesale account with bcw and even with a wholesale account, prices on ebay are maybe $5-10 more than if i were to buy directly from bcw. This is true for both bags and boards.

eBay. I have found eGerber mylar & boards cheaper than the actual site (mainly due to shipping costs). Look for free shipping items.

Nope. I meant to say that. It means if you were to buy from bcw yourself, it would cost you more money than if you were to buy from ebay because you would be a retail customer. As a wholesale customer of bcw, i get a better discount than someone looking to buy without a wholesale account and even with that discount, i would only pay $5 more or so if i bought on ebay. So as a regular customer, bcw cant beat ebay prices. Not even stores can beat ebay prices. Unless they are master distributors of bcw and to be one, you have to buy and sell a lot of stuff every month. First month you are required to buy $15,000 worth. Dont know a store anywhere that buys that much in supplies each month.
