I no longer buy from Australia anymore, for that exact reason. I have a friend in the states that ships it on to me and with postage it is so much cheaper than here.
In fact A Current Affair ran a story last week on this, because the fact is that while most shops profit from the extra cash from the strong dollar. In the long run it is going to throw interest rates even higher. Andrew Scott Senior Coldfusion Developer Aegeon Pty.

PS: People who sell it in AU might think it's bad if you purchase direct from the US, but in reality this is happening everywhere. People are buying direct with low freight and a good $AU its very common, and not just for software.

We are ready to purchase now, so anyone know a great place to purchase at a reasonable price. Andrew Scott Senior Coldfusion Developer Aegeon Pty.
