Can’t fault this company

Can’t fault this company, excellent service fantastic price. I had been searching for a Star Wars #1 for ages, Matt remembered this and not only messaged me when he got one in, even kept it aside until I contacted him.

Highly recommended company, will definitely keep using,

Fantasy Road

I have been buying from Fantasy road comics for over 2 years now and every time I am super satisfied with the experience. Dear Matthew is always super insightful and always able to assist with any questions I have. Packing quality is next level with added protection for every order to ensure the product arrives in the condition you expected. I would recommend Fantasy Road to anyone for their collector needs!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I can’t recommend Fantasy Road Comics highly enough. I purchase the majority of my comics from Matt through his Whatnot streams, and the experience is always fantastic.

The streams are always positive, relaxed and enjoyable, and Matt is incredibly honest and knowledgeable about every book he sells. He gives detailed information about each lot, points out condition issues when there are any, and you always feel like you know exactly what you’re buying.

Delivery is consistently excellent too — my orders usually arrive within 2 days, and Matt is always prompt and helpful whenever I’ve messaged with a question.

I’ve also used their press, clean and grading services, which I’ve been really impressed with. The service is great value and gives me confidence that my books are being looked after properly.

If you’re into comics, whether you’re a seasoned collector or just getting started, I’d definitely recommend checking out Fantasy Road Comics. Great books, great service and, most importantly, a seller you can trust. 🙌📚

I have been buying comics from Fantasy…

I have been buying comics from Fantasy Road for many months now and I’ve always had a positive experience. Prices are more than fair and delivery is always SUPER quick. What’s more important to me is how available the owner is with how easy it is to contact him with queries and help regarding anything. Couldn’t recommend using Fantasy Road more.

Time wasters

Time wasters. Did the valuation form, said could take longer & to msg after 72hrs. Been 4 days & I had sent follow ups to check. Same day I did valuation I got an automated response only saying about 72hrs due to large amount to contact. Now had rude responses saying check your 1st or 2nd email since we asked for pictures. I responded I have had no such email & sent pics verifying my all mail inbox with search bar set to fantasy road. Only 1 msg on Friday was the automated response. 4 days later & after back & forth of me saying I don’t have this email next I get is we are not interested in your item even though you haven’t seen them since you asked for pictures. Just rude time wasters

Reply from Fantasy Road Comics & Collectibles

Hello Bob/Reiss

I'm extremely saddened that you've decided to try and trash a family run businesses reputation with this review.

To start with, we recieved three contacts from yourself via the contact form/ai Web chat, all titled 'URGENT, REPLY INSTANTLY' 'CALL ME RIGHT NOW' amongst other variations of the same title. This was late on Friday evening, as business hours were ending.

Despite this, on the same day I replied via the lead tracker asking for more information on the item, a few hours after you contacted us.

Since then, despite the reply, we have had 10+ very rudely worded emails/web chats demanding contact from us.

The 'rude response' that you referenced in your message that you stated above, I will paste below.

' Hey Reiss,

We replied on the same day that you first made contact, via email. Please check your junk/spam folder.

We replied asking for images of the absolute edition.

Kind regards
Matt'

I fail to see how this response is even remotely rude, but you are of course entitled to your own opinion.

As a trader in the UK, we reserve the right to do business with anyone we choose, and I have to admit, your emails did put us on the back foot, due to their aggressive nature. Despite this, this was not the reason we declined to offer on your item. Final crisis absolute edition, which you are selling, last sold for £38 a few days ago on ebay. Taking into consideration that this is the price before leaving room for profit, and the fact that the absolute edition weights a lot, which means that the postage (which we cover) would be expensive, there is almost no room for us as a business to make a profit on this item.

We are not 'time wasting', nor are we rude. I will admit that I should have explained in more detail why we were declining to offer on your item, but seen as you were chasing for an 'URGENT REPLY' at 10pm last night, I will admit that my focus was on getting some sleep.

As a side note, 72 hours at the time of writing in terms of business hours, is today - so at the time of you leaving your review last night, we were even still within the 72 hour window. Plus, this 72 hour turnaround is something that we endeavor to adhere to, and is not a promise, as is stated in the automated response that you would have recieved.

If there is anything that we can do to change your review, please do let me know. I'm happy to offer advice on where you can sell the collected edition that you have, etc.

Fantastic smooth sale transaction

Fantastic smooth sale transaction. Matt was prompt and professional with his correspondence and offered me a good deal on 1,200 comics I was selling to cut down my collection. A breeze to deal with. Thoroughly recommended!

I sold my comic collection to Fantasy…

I sold my comic collection to Fantasy Road and it was a simple and quick process. After agreeing a price, Matt organised the courier and I received payment a few days later. Great service and highly recommend 😃

Fast, easy selling process

Interacted as a seller. Matt got back to me quickly and was honest in his valuations. A label was sent quickly too so the whole process of selling my things was smooth and took very little time. I much prefer to support a small business like this than larger platforms, as they know their stuff and are real fans of the genres they sell.

Excellent service from start to finish!

I was looking to sell my comic collection (mostly 2000s era) and found Fantasy Road through the search engine. I'm glad I did because I recieved brilliant service. Matt was very transparent about the process and super friendly the entire way through. He also gave me a very generous quote which was much appreciated. From there he sorted a shipping label and it was picked up from my door. A few days later and I got my money. The whole process was very convenient from start to finish. If you're looking to sell your old comic collection I highly recommend Fantasy Road!
