Anyone recommend some good, reliable online comic shops in europe/UK? I would prefer it if it's one that accepts PayPal.
I know of Reed Comics and thecomicbookstore.co.uk but feedback is scarce, any experience?

It's not really a back issue shop though, just new releases. But everything comes bagged and boarded and well packaged.
*well, techically, I've had loads of issues, but you know what I mean!
Thanks. A quick look is giving me good impressions (thuogh i still have to check what are their shipping costs outside of UK). One thing though, in case you have experience with this situation:
What happens if i place an order that has back issues AND a pre order (like Batman #13 which is released on the 10th this month)? Do they wait until they have it so they can send all of them together?
edit: also, do they actually have all of that in stock? o.O
Generally, if only 1 item is in stock, they will send it out to you, then send you the other one when it arrives.
The exception to this is the second item is coming in the same week, then they tend tol hold back the first item until the second on is in.
they also offer a really great "semi-sub" service, if you want certain titles each month.
He accepts Paypal and he can do subscriptions.
re: back issues - I remember when I had gaping holes in my collection and it turned out to be cheaper to buy a whole bunch from America than buy from a number of UK based stores - and they arrived in packaging akin to a lump of cement, themz Americans sure love their packaging
btw buying one of those wide letterboxes thru which A4 sized hardbacked envelopes can fit was such a good idea
