I used
flightplanet.com.au . It is a fully accredited travel agent, been around for years.
However they do charge a service fee. I was told it is normally 8% of the ticket value, but I got a discount to 5% (so I paid $241). They also charge a fee for paying by credit card (1.5% I think, but I go that waived).
To purchase a RTW ticket, you should be able to phone Qantas direct
