I think you're right to try to get something from an Australian site. Posted stuff from the UK is taking even longer / more erratic than usual at the moment, unsurprisingly.

Haven't got any recommendations, sorry.

Plenty of Australian and NZ residents here OP who can recommend where to order from. What kind of thing do you want to send her? Food, books, clothes, beauty, experiences, flowers?

Myer www.myer.com.au
David Jones www.davidjones.com

Are the main department stores. Not much you can't get from there. You can order with a UK credit or debit card and will be charged at the exchange rate for that day plus a small foreign currency fee.

What do you want to get her?

What about a gift voucher for a nice local restaurant?

I have a few of these figures in my kitchen (have been gifted them as presents over the years) and I really like them.
