    i picked up 3 gilded dragons from oakleigh post office in the centro centre last week, they had 5 in total but were holding two for other customers. Always ask what they have at the back in stock as the display cases are usually not a good indication.

    1oz coloured and 1/2 oz coloured bought today (only ones left in stock in the store). I wasn't too fussed on the 1/2 oz but got it anyway. Indicated that there were approx 30 x 1 oz coloured that could be ordered in for me if I want them. ???!!!

    Think I might put in an order tomorrow for them all. :)

    With clarrification, looks like the postie led me astray. Nothing more in stock. I was lucky to get my 1oz yesterday. Still, one is better than none. Maybe next time!

    Just a heads up; Warwick Shopping Centre PO Shop in Perth has 2 1oz coloured proof dragons available. They gave me the option of buying all 4 but I only took two since I have a ton already..

    Should be getting a few more in at my local, the 1oz proof dragons that is, I will see if he is getting any coloured or typsets in as well. The mania seems to be dying down a bit though, might have to sit on them for a while.

    Saw a 1oz Silver Proof rabbit for $100 at the PO.
    Is that worth buying?

    If it is still in the Post Office then it probably isn't !

    My local PO has gilded and coloured rabbits from last year, I bought a coloured rabbit for $78 last year as a present for my niece.

    However.... if someone is making up a set they wll be needing one!

    If the price is right why not but I would rather pay a bit more for a dragon which has a chance of going up in value quicker.
