My LCS is just missing too many of my books. He used to be really good but I am having to track down to many on my own. Tired of trying to find books on ebay. So, I need one thats reputable. If anyone uses one thats trustworthy, please let me know. Thanks.

if Pov hasn't seen this thread, PM him. As I recall, he seems to be a knowledgeable source on comparative mail services.

I'll second that one! Mile High has always been good to me.

I've used Mile High's N.I.C.E. program before, too. My only caveats with them were that their discount system was kinda weird and their shipping was a little slow. Also, their website is in desperate need of some more user-friendliness updating. It's barely changed at all since 2000. But otherwise, they were pretty solid.

I also used an online company called Perpetual Comics. Though the discounts were good, the website had huge problems trying to arrange payment. I'm pretty sure they're out of business, actually.

Pov has said good things about DCBS which is his new comics service. I can vouch for them as I frequently use In-Stock Trades (another arm of the same business) and have had nothing but good experiences with them.

Other reputable online subscription services are Lonestar Comics (also called mycomicshop) and Midtown Comics. I've dealt with both for back issues, and they've been terrific.

I've also had good experiences with Mile High and Lonestar for back issues and would use them again.
