Do you have to have purchased the items in Australia? I know some people try to only purchase electronics overseas, because they are so much more expensive there.

No, an item sold across the 'net is still being sold to Australia, and beholden to the Consumer Rights.
However, you're pretty much guaranteed to get nowhere unless the company, or a subsidiary, resides within Australia.
But, if in doubt, report to the ACCC, they handle the legal legwork for you, even to see if you have a case.
EDIT: I've had a few Arduinos from dealxtreme be shoddy. The ACCC got them to send replacements.
