Where is a good place to buy Comics?

Hey, I am looking for a lot of TMNT comic Back Issues, some selects from the current series and almost all of Volume 2 and 3.

Is there like a place online that sells good back issue selection other than ebay? I have no luck finding comics on ebay....

Last year I bought a lot of Volume 1 issues from mycomicshop.com. The prices aren't the best, but I have had only good experiences with them. To minimize costs, buy reprints when possible and look for the lowest graded issues. A comic in fair condition is as easy and fun to read as one in near mint, in my opinion.

I've had good luck with Atomic Avenue.

I filled in a lot of my TMNT back issues through them. Only thing is I'm not sure but you might have to be registered with ComicBase since it's their site, but they do have a free unlimited trial plan, which I use and it's very fast and easy to set up. It lets you keep track of up to 500 comics, which is just about the perfect size to track my TMNT collection (until it gets a little bigger, then I'll have to pay for an upgrade)

I've bought from them on several occasions, and normally have good experiences, except twice now, I've bought comics from them and they've sent the wrong comic. They let me keep the mistake and credited my account, but apparently the comics are labeled wrong in their storage or something... I'd much rather have the comic I ordered instead of an account credit... especially when it came to TMNT Adventures Special 11.
