My question is, is it worth getting this cheap lens repaired?[ it is nice and sharp, and has lovely bokeh], and if so, who in Australia would do it?
Thanks in advance for any info. Oh, and yes I have cleaned the life out of the contacts.

Hi R,
Is there any sign that the in-camera contacts might be an issue, either dirty, bent, worn, etc... Have you tried another lens on the camera, to test for potential camera issues?
Best
