$14.57 delivery.
To buy the tape in Australia costs around $24 for 8mtrs yet you can buy it on Ebay for under $4 including postage
That is with slow delivery from China ….
I'd sooner be waiting 2 to 3 weeks and save 80%.
You can find cheap tapes delivered from Australia for around $4 or less if you purchase bulk

got a link you recommend?
I just buy from whoever is cheapest never had a problem yet. This 9mm tape (This printer only uses 9mm and 12mm) is only $2.95 but Ebay will add 10% to cover GST https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/TA-231-TZe-231-Label-Tape-Compat…
many thanks will give them a try, in term of quality compared to original brand are they pretty much the same/not as sticky/printing as a good?
Never had a problem i use them for labeling my plants so they are on plastic tags outside in the weather or in a shadehouse all year.I started using the tape about 4yrs ago and have only had to replace 2 or 3 labels obviously you need to make sure the surface is clean before applying.
Any cheap charger for this?
I wouldn't bother with a charger they use AAA batterys and have a very low power usage.
These things are shit if you're doing single labels. After every label it prints something like 5cm of extra label because according to Brother "that's how the label cartridge is designed".
Huge waste of tape which isn't cheap. Better off going with the equivalent Dymo model.
