for European and Asian names Eurodns.com has a quite comprehensive offer.
I have a bunch of ccTLDs too and my experience is that having a single registrar is not always a good thing. It may seem more convenient but sometimes you end up paying too much.
Do your own research to have a realistic idea of ccTLD prices. Read the fine print: some extensions are difficult to transfer or involve some bureaucracy. As a rule country extensions are often less flexible than .com so choose your registrar carefully

He's interested in country-based domain names. I remembered seeing a list somewhere on NP. Search for it.

Make sure you read up on the specific rules for registering each different ccTLD you want AndyTempest, there are a lot of rules to obey about some.

I suggest you register them on different registrars, since as the saying goes, don't put all your eggs in one basket.

And some registrars offer a lower price for a particular ccTLD but a higher price on another. So it's probably best to deal with different registrars.

Err No they Aren't
.com.au and .net.au
IF you Qualify,then the retail price is $35USD or Less for 2 years

Only places that have them dearer than that are Rip-offs
Normal Australian W'sale price is $30 USD for 2 years
which is cheaper than a lot of the other ccTLD's like .CC and .TV
Usual Price for .com & .net
Is somewhere between $16USD - $20USD for 2 years
unless on promo or deals

AND as A final warning , DO not be tempted to Buy .com.au's unless for
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/domain-newbies/130433-country-specific-domain.html
legal AUSTRALIAN business related activities.There is no legal Doamin Name Speculation in Australian ccTLD's . You will lose the names in a dispute.
