AI-generated summary
Honestly, at **£12.43 ex‑VAT** this **Brother LC‑1240Y (yellow) original** cartridge is the kind of item that only makes sense if you *actually* print yellow regularly and you want predictable colour without faffing about. If your use is day-to-day documents, charts, or anything where the yellow needs to look right (not “good enough”), original cartridges are usually less hassle and more consistent than compatible options. For a UK office reseller context, I’d call this a sensible buy for a small team that runs the yellow channel often and wants fewer surprises.
That said, I wouldn’t buy it just because it’s “on the shelf” or because you ran low once. If you print mostly black-and-white, or your yellow use is occasional, the cost per useful page can add up fast—especially if you end up with dried-up ink from long gaps. Also, your pricing note says it’s under **“LASERSUPP > Toner Cartridges,”** which is a bit of a red flag for categorisation accuracy—make sure it’s the correct ink cartridge for your exact Brother model before you order. If you tell me the printer model, I can say whether this is likely to be a good fit or a “wrong cartridge tax.”
