Done: Ask Us Anything With Transition Bikes - Why Making Bikes is Fun
So US price converted to AUD is about $4300. Add Australian sales tax (which I believe is 10%) adds $430 brings you to $4,370 - leaves a difference of $780 AUD which can be explained by additional freight, duty, and some distributor margin. I really can't understand what you're griping about...
You've got to remember that US pricing never (generally) includes sales tax whereas everywhere else in the world it does.

No, it's not. A Smuggler with Build Kit 2 has an RRP of $5,645 - which once you add tax to the US price plus some freight for bringing it halfway around the world is pretty reasonable...

I have mine setup with a Fox 36 180 TALAS and a Truvativ Hammerschmidt crankset. It's freakin' awesome. http://www.flickr.com/photos/rodeptchev/4822470735/
