I used to work with a guys about 10yrs ago that was an avid baseball card collector. He showed me his "collection" which amounted to at least a half dozen packing boxes full of cards, catalogged in his own system. With the number of cards, the age and condition of those cards, as well as complete sets of various teams, leagues and seasons, I couldn't even begin to calculate how much they would be worth. A good guess would be $10's of thousands to probably over $100 thousand.
(That's not counting any new purchases he may have made in the years since. I mean, I've seen people move with fewer boxes than this gut had.)
