I haven't paid a great deal of attention to airside postboxes - and I
can imagine there may be whatever security concerns nowadays too.

Airport post boxes are a special design with a transparent back:

This BPMA factsheet claims that there's one airside in LHR T4:

I also recently spotted one of these landside at the front entrance of
LCY. (I didn't pay too much attention to it, but the security check
area had a vending machine which appeared to be selling pre-stamped
padded envelopes, which I think might have been to let passengers post
any sharp or otherwise prohibited items back to themselves - I don't
recall if there was a post box nearby.)

Do they even sell stamps airside?

In WHSmith, no doubt.

People like PC World/Dixons have shops at Heathrow...

Indeed, airports are the only places you'll still find a Dixons shop -
the rest are all Currys.digital these days.
