Looking to buy the above and keep as spare for MacBook air 13.3. Cheapest I could find on the internet is £46? Anybody has a recommendation and the cheapest is from £30. Not interested to buy from ebay. Thanks

Is this link any use?

This one is £32 - Probably not bad to keep as a 'spare'

This one even cheaper - I assume as its 'fulfilled b Amazon' its safe.

Doohickey hut at £36.99 or Coywood computers at £39.99 delivery £6 seem genuine to me but too cheap!! Most probably will buy from the latter. Thanks0

Buy genuine from Apple or an Apple authorised seller. Its a false economy buying aftermarket especially with just over a tenner price difference. Apple ones have a lot of logic inside for regulation and monitoring not present in aftermarket ones.

Who in their right mind would risk damaging a laptop that cost several hundred quid or more for the sake of saving a tenner or so on a charger?
Just because it is fulfilled by Amazon doesn't mean its safe, it just means they hold stock for the seller in their warehouse. Many of the cheap Chinese hoverboards that set on fire were "fulfilled by Amazon".This is a system account and does not represent a real person.
