It's not normal, but some franchise stores in touristy neigbourhoods do charge something extra. This is really not comprehensible in Austria as there is no mandatory registration yet. The new governement plans to introduce this requirement soon and then the stores and registration points will have much more work to do which may justify a small surcharge.

That's why we have mentioned "the recommended sales price" of the provider. It may be a few Euros more for a starter than a regular pack, but not substantially more. Just go to tobacco stores (Trafiken), stationery shops (Libro), post offices, kiosks or convenience stores and you will find the starter for the advertised price.
