Must be quiet a bit out of date.
Local Rays will sell you a bottle but haven't refilled them in years :( had that argument with them on the day....

You would be lucky to have a local Rays as they have been shutting them down to head into the online world of retail.

I've been on their f/b page for ages, and yes a couple of bits get outdated as "the grizzler" said but it's generally very helpfull

I believe your $20.00 option is just the bottle, with the $40.00 option being a bottle full of LPG.
Just my take on it.  Where I am it's $19.00 to fill a 4kg bottle and $25.00 to fill a 9kg bottle.
Go over the road to a Swap and Go, and pay $39.00, to swap an empty 4kg. bottle for a full one.

Well from a quick look at it last night from my phone. ...   I'm pretty sure both options were "refill options"....    (ie: into your byo cylinder).....

The website is only updated based on user's feedback.  Bit like wikicamps.  The info is only as good as the feedback supplied by users.  If everybody takes, and not gives, it will not be much use to anybody.

^^^^   ... Yes; that is the situation with a fuel app I have on my phone.

Works great with everything else it does  - but the diesel ticker is nearly always obsolete, unfortunately..

Camping Plus at Burleigh is $19.50 for a 9kg refill - cheapest I've seen on the GC

Just thought - their Labrador store would probably be the same!
