What counts as a valuable card?
In Magic: The Gathering, valuable cards are usually identified by a gold symbol (Rare) or a red symbol (Mythic Rare).
In Pokémon, these are typically holo, reverse-holo, or Full-Art cards, EX, GX, V, VSTAR, VMAX, or rare Promo cards.
Cards are considered valuable if they have an estimated individual value of at least €5 or are especially popular among collectors.
We evaluate each card individually so you always get the best possible and realistic market price – regardless of whether they are new or older editions.
If you can’t exactly tell which of your cards are valuable, you can simply send us photos of your collection.
Our team can quickly assess how extensive and valuable your cards are.
Here’s the best way to proceed:
Once we receive your photos, one of our experienced buyers will review your collection and give you a realistic assessment of the current market value of your cards – quickly, transparently, and fairly.
For especially sought-after or rare cards – such as Pokémon EX, GX, V, VMAX, VSTAR, Full-Art, or Promo cards as well as Magic: The Gathering Rares and Mythic Rares – we offer daily updated purchase prices.
Depending on edition, condition, language, and current stock, we pay up to 70% of the common market price.
For rare or competitively strong cards with a market value of up to €20, we usually pay about 60% of the market price.
Cards with a market value of up to €5 are compensated depending on demand and condition with 10 – 50% of the market price.
We refer to cards with no relevant individual value as bulk – that is, cards with a market value of under €0.50, often Commons, Uncommons, Basic Lands, or common Pokémon cards.
Our purchase prices for bulk cards are:
At cardcosmos, we value fair and transparent prices.
All purchase prices are regularly adjusted to the current market situation and demand, so you always receive an honest and market-appropriate valuation.
