I only really requested the mixture to reassure Clovermite that it wasn't a scam, my collection isn't really ordered enough atm to know what worldwide gaps I have!
However, I did have fun going through them. I took 1 stamp from the BE mix that filled an important gap in my early GB collection. I only really have Norway sorted and mounted from Scandinavia, the mix was very heavy on Denmark, but I managed to fill 10 gaps in the Norway collection. From the world mix I took 450ish of the allowed 500 (there were probably more than 1000 in the bag). All in all I averaged 2p per stamp.
The remainder has been posted back to them today with my card details. I will revisit them when my collection is more ordered.
