United States vs Europe
Same card, holo print, two marketplaces.
Europe is 15% more expensive than the US for this print. Before acting on that, count shipping across the Atlantic, customs on the way in, and the risk of a card travelling in an envelope.
Converted at the European Central Bank reference rate for 2026-08-12. Currency moves on its own — the gap shown here is the gap on that date.

The 24-hour figure sits too far from the 30-day one to describe a month of trading, so we draw no conclusion from it. Cardmarket publishes averages but not how many copies they are averaged over, and we will not guess at the reason. The source figures are shown above without interpretation.
