Comic Shops in Winston-Salem, NC?

7 posts in this topic

Yes, it's another one of these threads...

 

I'm in Winston-Salem on business next week... Can anybody recommend some goods shops for back issues and longbox-diving?

It's not in Winston-Salem, but Parts Unknown in Greensboro is a pretty good shop and not too terribly far away. It's very small, but there's plenty there to see. I was there about a year ago and there was plenty of silver and bronze, but not too many long boxes due to space IIRC.

Here's their website:

Ssalefish is my #1 store that I go to almost every Wed. for new releases, and the owner/employees are great. Acme in Greensboro is a great store with a pretty large selection of back issues (more than ssalefish). Acme also has a good staff. Enjoy your visit to Winston!

I remember as a kid when John was still working at ACME Comics downtown Greensboro and then decided to go it alone with Parts Unknown in the now defunct Cotton Mill mall. I'm sure I was one of his first customers and remember visiting the first week it opened. Between ACME and Parts Unknown, Greensboro has such a wealth of great shops.

 

Of course, we're talking Winston-Salem, but I couldn't help but walk down memory lane a bit :)
