I'm interested to see how much more you pay for quality compared to the cheapo "as seen on TV" systems.

Hi Craig. Our 5.4kW system was just under 9k. The budget systems on TV are generally 3kW or less, so it's hard to compare.
Here's an article from November showing the average cost for a 5kW system in Melbourne at $8,500. So I think we did very well considering the use of top shelf components.
How much does a 5kW solar system cost in Melbourne, Victoria? - Solar Choice
It's worth noting that my system would've cost $3,325 more if it weren't for the solar credit rebate scheme - which our government reviews every two years (read: may be abolished).
Sorry to hijack your thread Mike.
