    There are only two ways that I know to have a large collection in Australia.

    1. Lots of time - you've been in the hobby forever and/or you have been buying, selling and trading for years and place zero value on the time you've invested.
    2. Money - lots of it.

    Most people I know fall into the second category, it might have taken them 6 or 7 years, but whether they realise it or not, they've pumped $150k+ into the hobby.

    Quoted from Chrisbee:

    I have been thinking about a NIB machine, can you tell me what I can expect to pay for one in Oz?
    Feel free to PM if you don’t want to make public.

    ~$6500 for a pro
    ~$9000 for a LE

    Price fluctuates with every model depending on the exchange rate and some other factors.

    AC/DC pro was $5995, but that was the cheapest a NIB machine has been here for 10 years or so.
