Hey Ted, I just got your comic in the mail today and wanted to send you a message to let you know how satisfied I was with the entire experience. You responded promptly to each message, worked with me on the price and securely sent the comic out the same day. I don’t think I could ask for anything else!
Hi Lisa I did indeed receive my latest order, two days ago, and I was delighted. So much so that I am still delighted. Best Wishes!
I keep buying from you guys because I have found you to be the easiest to deal with by far out of the half dozen or so dealers that I have tried, now I don’t even bother with anyone else.
This is my fifth order since July last year, and I have to say that I am so impressed with the quality of everything. Your website, the ordering and shipping process and most important the quality of the comics. I have bought several expensive comics from the big online stores that had significant writings/markings on them that were not described on the website. I know now that if you do not write a comment, then the comics are in exactly the condition you rate them as. And that is so important for me when buying the expensive older issues. Always a pleasure, keep up the good work.
Hi, I just wanted to commend Superworld for their service at the Boston Comicon yesterday. Both gentlemen were extremely helpful and their passion for comic books was evident. I purchased Captain America 101 CGC 9.2 for a great price and it made my first Comicon a great experience. I must have walked the entire event floor 6 times and each time I kept coming back to Superworld. The selection of high grade books was amazing. Having the brief conversation with the gentlemen (Ted I believe) about Neil Adams Batman specifically Batman 227 the Demon at Gothos Mansion was great. It really showed me that Superworld isn’t just a business. The employees love this stuff. I look forward to more business with Superworld and plan to venture out to Holden for a day trip with my sons. Again thank you for exceeding my expectations at Comicon.
Hi Lisa and Ted. Wow, wow, WOW. Thanks Lisa!!! Superworld is the best!!! My friend will be very happy. Your action comics are really nice!! What a comic!! Many thanks again!
Hey Ted. Very pleased with the books and your super accurate grading, you will definitely be hearing from me more this summer.
