We always buy our return tickets in the UK and plan ahead. We are going over in about 2 weeks and have paid $4080 for the return tickets to get back to Perth. That price is for 2 adults and 1 child that's with Emirates flying Birmingham to Perth return. These were our most expensive flights yet, we usually get them in the seat sales and get some bargains.
These flight 'back' to the UK are our returns from the seat sale at Christmas and cost $3,225 again for 2 adults and 1 child. With the seat sales (just if you don't know) you have to pay the money up front in full. I guess they use the money to gain interest and so allow them cheap in the first place.
Try Trailfinders website.... all their prices are inclusive of taxes, the price you see is the price you pay.
