£14.48 inc. VAT
AI-generated summary
For £12.07 ex-VAT, the Brother LC123C cyan is a fairly typical price for an original ink cart, and it’s the kind of purchase you make when you want predictable print quality and minimal faff. The big “buy” case is simple: if your business relies on coloured output for documents, signage drafts, or client-facing printouts, original tends to give steadier colour and fewer headaches with banding or smudging than cheaper compatibles.
That said, I wouldn’t buy this ink purely out of habit. If you print a lot, ink can quietly become one of those line items that balloons—at that point you should check your printer’s actual page yield and compare against alternatives (including multipacks or high-yield options, if your model supports them). Also, if you mainly print text-heavy docs, you may get better value by optimising workflow (or using mono where possible) rather than paying for colour cartridges that sit around. If you tell me your Brother printer model and rough monthly page volume (roughly), I can give you a clearer “worth it vs not” call.
