Which agent should we choose?
Hiya, me again!
Not too sure who to go with when applying for visa, they are all quoting different prices, can anyone suggest a good company to use? Thanks

All very good. You should pick somone you feel comfortable with, ring them all and have a chat see what your gut feeling is telling you.
There are load more out there, main things to keep in mind should be:
Are they registered with MARA?
Do they charge an upfront set fee? (when I say upfront, I mean all written down before you sign a contract)
If the answer is no to either of them questions then don't use them.

Hiya, thanks for that info, i'm sure it will help, just out of curiosity, who did you go with and how long have you been living in Australia? Thanks

Pay very careful attention to this one point !
It can be a very costly mistake if you go "pay as you go"
