Nup. No price. To be blunt for the 1/2 dozen or calls ATS gets per anum for Astro software, the recommendation is to contact Cyanogen/Bisque/Brand X directly, as we *have to* charge GST, but...
Australian Customs has decreed postal imports under $A1000 are (mostly) GST free.....plus non-freeware Astro-software has very few users in Oz, gets updated too quickly to have on the shelf, the wholesale margins are less than the GST and you can download it and pay no shipping.
In short, most people in Oz don't want to pay $A200 for local support hence the "No soup for you!" approach.
