I don't have time to make it myself. Is there anywhere I can buy it in Melbourne or Victoria?

It appears that this might be a difficult one to answer. I think I have seen it for sale on Graham Bull's QLD finch breeder site. I have also seen that Mike Fidler suggests freezing it.

So I was just wondering if there was anybody selling it in Victoria?

Thanks

If you soak in in Virkon, you should be fine. I tend to make up about 2kg at a time by soaking it for 2 hours, then leaving it to drain overnight in a warm place. It doesn't take long to do.
