Yup, several other people also (actually, there are definitely folks who
buy more than I do, I just never get around to selling much of mine).
Last I checked, my spreadsheet of cataloged sets came in at over 250k
pieces. I'd estimate that I'm pretty close to 500k. Larry Pieniazek must
BUY several times as much as I do as do several other folks. Mike
Stanley should be up there (how many blue tubs has he claimed to have
used for his train layout?).
I don't know how rapidly Conan buys compared to others of us, but unless
his buying pace is like mine or faster, his collection could well fall
behind the leaders (my collection of 250k-500k has been purchased over
the course of about 20 months so far).

Yea, I may have to schedule a trip to the northern midwest sometime,
I've got a sister and a friend or two up Milwaukee way.
