Do U.K. people collect American baseball cards?

I just spent a considerable amount of money on a card on ebay from a U.K. seller yesterday. They provided a huge close up of the card and it looks to be 100% authentic, because I compared it to three others from the same set I own. The seller is highly reputable with tons of positive and they are a collectables store in the U.K. and seem like great, honest people. And not only to mention, the cards looks totally authentic! But of course I am still nervous buying from a foreign seller and it's a raw card, plus I know honest people do get their hands on fakes and think they are real. It also leads me to wonder, how the hell did this card end up in England? My question is, is there a good population of U.K collectors out there?

I would put up the link to the ebay auction to show the pics but my work computer blocks ebay.
