Hi David

You can get a legitimate version of MSDN Universal for $895US on ebay. Some of the sellers say the reason is that they buy up unused subscriptions from companies trying to clear out their stock.

I am not sure how that works for Australia but there are a number of places to buy MSDN Universal for much less than MS's MSRP (for example Amazon.com)
