Yeah, don't know why sales are slow in Australia =)

I was so annoyed when they banned selling to Australia from the UK, very glad that there are still a few people finding ways around it otherwise I'd be hobby-less (or permanently plugged into eBay!)

Because people buy them. Basic economics.

Sorry folks, I hate the prices as much as the next guy, but we're all starting to get slightly repetitive.

Being repetitive about something that's wrong is bad now? For me it's not so much the prices as the cost inequity I suffer due to geography. It's wrong. So I complain. People aren't buying them as much here so the economic model isn't working as they'd like, hence they shut down (have tried to) overseas distributors which has led to eBay etc. which has an unfortunate effect of creating what to them seems like an under inflated market "down under" and feeds back in a loop.

I emailed WH to complain, surprise, they never replied
