Any brick and mortar comics specialty shop or bookstore is welcome to buy comics and graphic novels here. We'll also sell directly to comics shops that exist exclusively online however those shops must have an active, functioning comics-specific retailing operation already in place.  

Ordering from us couldn’t be easier. Our entire catalog is online – hundreds of titles are up right now and more are added daily! There's no pre-sales, no advance ordering, and no worries about late shipping. If it's in our catalog it's available. Just that simple. We can print and ship it right away. Nothing is EVER out of stock here.

Our ordering system is powered by an OSCommerce-based shopping cart. Very easy to use. You just click to add an item to your cart and adjust the quantity.

Plus all items at ComicsMonkey come Point-of-Sale Ready with a scan-able bar code and SKU number (UPC and/or ISBN). With each order you'll also be emailed a text file containing all the POS information on the items you ordered so that you can easily add those items to your stock keeping or point-of-sale system.

And if you think the only great comics out there are found in that phonebook-sized catalog mentioned earlier, then you’re in for an enormous surprise! Just take a look around the site. There’s some absolutely TERRIFIC stuff here -- a true renaissance of independent comics. We've got comics from established professionals as well as up and coming talent. Full color and black & white, all genres, books for mature readers, books for young readers, comics, trade paperbacks, manga ... we've got it all.

Plus each item in the catalog has a detailed description of the story and sample pages of the artwork, so you're not ordering blindly.

Our discounts are tiered, based on the number of items and the quantities you purchase.

The base discount is 35% off of cover price. But if you order just 10 different items (in ANY quantities -- you could order just 1 copy of 10 different items) we'll give you 50% off of the cover price on your entire order.

Your discount will be calculated at checkout and you’ll immediately receive an invoice for payment. Our preferred method of payment is Paypal, but we'll also accept credit cards, checks, or money orders. Although if you pay by check or money order your order won't ship quite as quickly as it would if you paid online. Once your payment has cleared, your order will print and ship immediately.

At this time all orders are pre-pay only.

Shipping
On all orders under $500 retail the retailer pays the shipping costs, though we’ll use the lowest cost shipping on a given order. USPS flat rate will be used whenever possible, unless the retailer requests otherwise.  All orders will ship within 1 week of receipt of payment.

Any order over $500 retail will receive free shipping within the US. 

There are absolutely NO MINIMUM orders and no order or reorder fees of any kind.

Damages

All sales are final and non-returnable except for comics received in a damaged condition.  Damaged merchandise will receive full credit or replacament, but all claims of damage must be reported and documented within 3 days of receipt.

To place an order at ComicsMonkey you must first register. You'll be asked to create a user account and to provide the name of your shop (we’ll sell to any brick and mortar comics shop as well as to online shops however online shops must have an active, functioning comics-based retailing operation already in place), your location, your tax ID information, and a few other details that will allow us to verify that you are a reseller of comics (we'll also need something that legally documents your status as a reseller -- state sales tax certificate or reseller's license, etc. ... whatever is legally required to do business in your state or locality).

Once we've verified your registration you'll be able to place orders ... at ANY time.   There are no deadlines.  You may order at your convenience.  Order what you want, when you want it. 

Each month we'll send you a free sample packet containing a few items from our catalog – mostly some comics, but occasionally graphic novels and trade paperbacks well. No cost to you. We want you to see both the quality of the comics we offer as well as the quality of the printing.

And that's really all you need to know to get started ...
