VA have A330s still on the Australian register. Buyers market I would have thought.
The Qantas aircraft are almost 2x the age of the ex VA ones, and thus their value is greatly reduced, add in the fact the initial A330s were rumoured to be ordered at a great discount thanks to A380 delays, it would be hard to find comparable cost aircraft on the market, with the exception of the VA bird marooned in Perth for the foreseeable future.
