We have a dog, a small one, and we needed to check out the prices of a tick and flee prevention, so I spent a while checking out the on-line options of some prices.
What I have found for the 6 pack Frontline Plus for Small Dogs, up to 10kg, Orange pack was:
$67.10 dstore.com
$65.67 www.vetproductsdirect.com.au
$65.44 www.vetshopaustralia.com.au
$61.70 www.petsgard.com.au
$61.40 www.trixanpet.com.au
$59.80 www.pricelesspets.com.au
$56.25 www.petfood247.com.au **
$55.95 www.pets-megastore.com.au
All prices quoted INCLUDE the standard delivery charge where applicable. Â Some suppliers provide FREE delivery for orders exceeding those prices, and that was not counted, but if two packs were purchased, then the cheapest one shown above, may not still be the cheapest.
I did just check the price for two packs, as I may buy 2 anyway, and here is the revised list:
$127.25 ( $63.63each) dstore.com
$124.93 ( $62.47each) www.vetshopaustralia.com.au
$118.45 ( $59.23each) www.petsgard.com.au
$117.85 ( $58.93each) www.trixanpet.com.au
$113.44 ( $56.72each) www.vetproductsdirect.com.au
$112.10 ( $56.05each) www.pricelesspets.com.au
$107.00 ( $53.50each) www.petfood247.com.au **
$102.00 ( $51.00 each) www.pets-megastore.com.au
But now I wonder about the larger pack, the 12 pack. Â But not everywhere appears to sell this one. Â I did find it at:
$115.93 www.vetshopaustralia.com.au
$ 99.00 www.pets-megastore.com.au
The bottom line is now $99 with free delivery for a pack of 12, or $8.25 per month. (Based on 1 per month)
This was of course, just on one specific day, and prices may change, but it gives an idea of prices.
Prices for local shops are not included above, but it is worth checking them, for example:
The 3 pack Frontline Plus for Small Dogs, up to 10kg:
- $37.95Â www.pets-megastore.com.au
- $33.98 Big W store
A visit to Big W tomorrow ?

I was wary to approve such a post, but I checked out your links, and it does look like there are a substantial number of complaints to warrant avoiding this company.
It does NOT appear to be a scam, but the best information on this that I found was at: http://www.scamwarners.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=4422
There are currently 399 posts on the subject, and some details on the company itself.
Everyone should be wary when buying anything from a business that you know nothing about. Unfortunately there are some companies who are not as good as others at providing what they advertise.
I did try to check the ASIC register for this company, but only found:
Business Name: http://WWW.PETFOOD247.COM.AU
Registered in NSW with business number BN98461919
Registration Date 19/10/2009
PetFood247
PO Box 3369

DON’T BUY FROM PETfOOD247
I purchased $295 worth of goods on Jun 21st 2011 by credit card,and my bank confirmed it was been taken from my credit card on Jan 25th 2011. I have not recieved the goods. My emails have been unanswered and the phone voice mailbox is full. I became suspicious and upon a web search found the following websites, generally web scam alerts all complaining furiously about PetFood 247. Through reading these websites it became obvious that PetFood 247 must be aware of their appropriate online business protocol, and they are either gaining money by not despatching goods in a timely fashion, or simply gaining money by customers giving up, or deliberately despatching in correct stock, which is also cunning. See following websites all containing complaints:

It was also extremely obvious that over more than 12 months hundreds of people have been reporting PetFood 247 to DTF, CTTT, ATO, A Current Affair, and some some engaged solicitors and now a class action is being discussed. It seems that the only action being taken from DTF complaints is piecemeal,and I know it’s buyer beware, but this has gone on for far too long without any end in sight. So I have two complaints: 1. PetFood 247 unethical, unprofessional and fradulent online business practice which allows have me to have the $295.00 goods I have paid for; 2. Despite constant complaints to many approprate bodies agencies this behaviour continues.
