The link above sells them - I've bought from them before they're ok. They sell lots of italian seeds, which means plenty in the pkt! Unless you want to do a swap?

As a fellow 'northerner' Vic, I can say that in the past yellow 'Orelia' & green 'Defender' courgettes have done well for me but as Zaz says it can vary from year to year & depends on the weather too. This year I've grown 'Black Beauty' which have been O.K. but were very slow to start setting fruits, lots of male flowers early on. I think we need to start them off bit earlier than growers down south, but keep them protected until after the frosts.
