Hi Sheap. Everything all have said is good advice.
Noting that you want to keep the price down, I'll just pipe in with my 5 cents worth : I had a 6" GSO Dob shipped to Melbourne from Andrews comms ($299 + $40 shipping).
Have been very happy with it.
That $299 included some binos too, which come in very handy indeed.
Having said that, that is one piece of common advice I haven't seen here yet - don't be afraid to make your first purchase some binoculars. You'll be needing them anyway (even with a telescope), so buy and use them while you save for your scope.
