I definitely would expect it if the rights were sold to an Australian publisher. If the an American publisher has global rights and the book is electronic, then I would not expect it. And it's in those cases where I would find it difficult to justify a higher price in the Australian market. And I would treat the case exactly the same as being able to personally import a paperback from a different country.
