As of today I am #85 in both baseball and basketball. And #170 (85x2) in wrestling. That's kinda cool.

Oh, I don't put much stock in the numbers, either, but -- like wins for a pitcher in baseball -- they give a roughly accurate picture of where one stands, even with the manipulators and other weirdness.
It's all all in good fun.

Had no idea these lists even existed. How about that, I am #28 for Hockey . Looks like the list counts only the cards in your collection excluding cards for Wantlist, For Sale/Trade, and In-Transit.

As far as the stars page goes this needs to be mentioned again. There is a difference in the way people out there collections on here. Billy is saying because he does trades all of his duplicates are not counted. While because I do not do trades all my duplicates are part of my collection. Billy says he has around 75000 duplicates and I have around 50000 duplicates making for a 125000 card swing. It is nice to see where you are ranked, but remember like the prices on here it is not completely accurate.

I don't list my duplicates in my collections, so for me, it IS accurate. I'm not concerned with other folks' collections.

Cool, I didn't know we had these stats. I'm #84 overall but #10 in both hockey and basketball, which would suggest those sports have a lot fewer collectors than others.
Uh, I own one baseball card. It's a Honus Wagner card (not "the" Honus Wagner card, obviously) that someone used as box filling for a Prestige basketball set I bought on ebay.

So I am a tad lost then as I don not show up in the top 200 for hockey on Dan's link. What does "Collection" constitue? Obviously not the For Sale/Trade cards then as I show me with a Total of 49,166 for ALL collections. I have 8 seperate collections with the largest at 19,480. So yes it is possibly innaccurate for some.

For my personal collection, I agree with Billy 100%. For set collectors like myself, I feel duplicates lead to an inaccurate count of my collection.
I love the collection stats for the site. It adds some excitement to achieve arbitrary goals. I would love to see a ranking for most different cards (this may exist, if so, forgive my ignorance..I'm newish)

I myself am 152th out of 200 in the hockey stats. I still have a lot more cards to add to my collection but I doubt that I'd go to number 1. I don't think I have that many cards.
