From box to bank transfer in days, not weeks
Four steps. No shop visits, no eBay fees, no auction-house commissions eating your payout. We come to you anywhere in the UK and pay on the same day your collection arrives.
What we buy
We buy comic book collections of every size, in any condition, from anywhere in the United Kingdom. A single graded slab, a short box from your loft, or a 30-year lifetime collection — we treat them all with the same care and price them with the same honesty.
We also buy Pokémon cards, Magic: The Gathering cards, and Funko Pops — so if your collection is mixed, send it all and we’ll value the lot in one go.
Selling your comics, made easy
You don’t need a printer, packing experience, courier accounts, or a Saturday afternoon free. Here’s exactly what happens once you decide to sell your comic collection to Fantasy Road.
A little bit about us
We’re a UK-based, family-run business with just a two-person team that has become the UK’s biggest and most reliable comic book buyers since we were established a little over five years ago in 2020. We’re not a giant firm. We’re not a corporate machine. There’s just two of us here — Matt (ex-developer, built the Fantasy Road website, runs the Whatnot shows, does the sales and purchasing), and Amy (spends Matt’s money). We are collectors.
Before Fantasy Road, we found ourselves in the same position you now find yourself in: confused, overwhelmed, with a stack of comics we wanted to get rid of and no idea how. Everyone we reached out to either didn’t reply, or when they did, were blunt, unhelpful, or sent back offers that were simply ridiculous. Lowballs, lies, and rude responses. No, thank you.
And so, Fantasy Road was born. We strive to be a place where you’re not just a number, and our responses aren’t templated. We treat you like we would have wanted to be treated ourselves — with respect, and with as much information as possible. We value transparency, and we’re happy to answer any question you might have. We were a community before we were a business, and we never want to lose touch with our roots.
We specialise in buying comic book collections, with a concentration on single issues, but we also take graphic novels, Funko Pops, Pokémon cards, Magic: The Gathering, and pop-culture collections — which we’ve been purchasing from private sellers all over the UK for years. If it’s nerd-culture related, the chances are we’ll take it.
One important point: we don’t operate a public shopfront. That was a decision we made in 2021, when we realised the up-front costs of running a physical store were holding us back. So we moved online and pushed the money we were spending on premises into paying more for your comic books — a decision that turned out to be one of the best we’ve ever made.
