I know who owns the famous T206 Wagner, but I'm a little skeptical that some billionares have recently entered the market. Its just a casual observation, but sometimes the wealthiest people are also the thriftiest. I actually do have second hand knowledge of someone who was doing well financially and put together a significant collection, but it was memorabilia - one of a kind items in some cases, game used, etc. stuff you can display like a trophy - conversation pieces. In my opinion, the average huge sports fan walking into your house - you'd have to explain what the little 9 or 10 means on the piece of paper above the card. If you have a bat that was used to hit a game winning world series home run or something, not much explanation is needed.
And who wins the big eBay auctions? The ones I checked, the eBay user ids have feedback scores way higher then mine - it takes time to build that up.
