Purchase SG-4860 in Australia
-
Are there any resellers in Australia who stock the pfsense hardware? Or do I have to order from the pfsense store and pay $100 shipping?
None of the pfsense "partners" in Australia seem to resell the hardware.
-
Don't forget if the purchase price plus shipping goes above AUD1000, you'll also be slugged 10% GST plus a processing fee by customs if you purchase directly from the pfSense store.

You could buy the ADI version of the 4860.

This would keep costs below 1000$ AUD to avoid customs/tax.
Then purchase a pfSense Gold Subscription and/or Support online.
Alternatively. Purchase pfSense support online, then ask pfSense sales for a discount on the SG-4860.
PS: I have purchased a 4860 from the pfSense store and had it shipped via FedEx. Yes its expensive but I was able to track the shipment and it came superfast.

Have a look here pfSense Partners and
please click on ASIA at the right side, then you will see some resellers from;- Auckland NZ, New Zeeland
- Indonesia, Malaysia
- Australia
Some partners are "VAR" marked that means selling hardware and some services!

this is very inconvenient and preventing purchase as i have no intention of being verbal sold a unit with credit card or the like.are their any stores that sell the pfsense devices online with secure checkout in australia?

What is listed there is what is known. Might be time to just pick up the phone.

Can I echo what this guy is saying?
As an Aussie, I can't see a single online presence for these on the web to buy, marked up or not.There's a lot of very small to mid sized consultant looking business's clearly offering the product with either a support contract or part of an investigation / assistance with a business security - but a general "fire and forget" click and buy, nothing.
A little disappointing, I see the SG-2200 is only $300 US, so I was hoping to be able to pick one up here on a whim but seemingly not.
Any plans in future? Also $100 shipping to AU? I mean my girl lived in California 2 years and shipped me stuff from the US all the time, even with packing time / materials, a box the size of the SG-2200 shouldn't cost more than $60 US. (if not $40)

You may not be aware of this forwarding service from Aust Post.
I haven't used it but friend recommended it some time ago.
