They have a tobacco/collector card show in London monthly or every couple of months at the Royal National Hotel in London. I went to a few of them but I was never able to locate many baseball cards that were reasonably priced. They thought they were worth more than they actually were worth and there weren't many to choose from. A few of the larger dealers "understood" that there was potential value in some of the cards and with the internet there's really nothing to hide (not much of a chance of finding a good deal unless the person is a total recluse).
The shows they had were pretty nice if you didn't mind non-sport or at least non-baseball related material.
Overall, I don't think that many Brits collect "baseball" cards. One shoppe that I used to check out was Murray's, unfortunately I believe they just closed a few months ago after a long time of being in business.
