Adobe 65167117 CS6 Master Collection
Amazon's catalog no longer lists this product (checked 2026-11-02). The name comes from the link HN users posted.
There's nothing stopping anyone from ordering from the US (eg. on amazon), apart from the extra GST (10%) added on top by aussie customs. On Amazon its only $2166 + 10% GST

In fact you can get the software locally for as low as $3550 if you shop around - http://www.softwaresite.com.au/adobe-software-/69-adobe-cs6-...
The main issue is the RRP (recommended retail price) put out by the developer (Adobe) which is totally ludicrous. My favourite is Microsoft AU's official RRP for the Windows 8 Pro Upgrade at AU$399. In the US its $199.
In my opinion, home users tend to shop around more and will be able to spot a bargain, but business users will probably be the ones being ripped off.
