    I think the true culprit is the Australian government and the huge import tarrifs and shipping costs that the Commonwealth levies on imports into the country - the games on the 'AU' SE store are entirelly digital download only (they sell no physical copies), hence the only thing SE has to pay the Australian government is a small amount of GST on each purchase. I know, it sucks (I'm Australian too), but there are online stores that do ship to Australia that sell FFXIV merchandise, but the cost of shipping can be still high.

    Sadly this is a problem I don't see being fixed any time soon. ; ;
