Not being a stamp or coin collecter I'm not sure if there is all that much that I can say about…read morethis place (well, I do collect coins, but only from countries that I have visited, when I am in them - more as souveniers than anything else). However, since I promised a friend to bring back some stamps from Europe I have found myself wandering into some of these places in the countries that I have visited, namely because it actually tends to be cheaper than going into a post office and buying some commemorative stamps. What I do like about places like this (and I haven't seen if that is the case in Australia) is that they have packets from various countries, so if you are looking for Bulgarian stamps, they have Bulgarian stamps, and if you are looking for Lithuanian stamps, they have them as well. Oh, and they also have coins, with tins full of random cheap coins, to albums full of the rarer stuff (as is the case with the stamps as well). The owner is pretty helpful, though I should mention that, like a lot of places in regional France, they go close at lunchtime.
