Look into a shipping service such as Bongo (US) will give you a US address, 
have Internet orders shipped there and then you can forward it to Australia.  I 
recently moved to Switzerland and I use a service like this in the US and 
another in the UK to work around shipping issues.  Sometimes the cost is 
prohibitive.
