If you are weighing Manchester Sapphire Blue vs UK Sapphire Blue during a lunch break, the short answer is that they are two different carton records on the Qyvaxon register: SS-196 (Manchester Sapphire Blue) and SS-232 (Manchester United Kingdom Sapphire Blue). Both are one carton of 10 packs, both are in stock, and both list at the same current price of A$195.50 with a regular price of A$230.00. Because the price and the blue pack design are identical, a photo alone cannot tell the two records apart. The complete written title and the SKU are the only reliable identifiers. This visual comparison verification shows where each image comes from, what the photo confirms, and how to pick the right SKU in minutes.
Manchester Sapphire Blue vs UK Sapphire Blue: The Two Records at a Glance
The table below was read live from the WooCommerce catalogue at publication time. Both records belong to the Manchester category, both are simple products sold as one carton, and both are marked in stock. Record names link to their product pages.
| SKU | Full carton record | Current listed price | Regular price | Stock | Carton size |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SS-196 | Manchester Sapphire Blue Cigarettes | A$195.50 | A$230.00 | In stock | 10 packs |
| SS-232 | Manchester United Kingdom Sapphire Blue Cigarettes | A$195.50 | A$230.00 | In stock | 10 packs |
Reading the table, the only difference between the two lines is the middle of the title: one record is Manchester Sapphire Blue and the other is Manchester United Kingdom Sapphire Blue. Everything else, including carton size, stock state, current price and regular price, is the same. That is exactly why the SKU matters: SS-196 and SS-232.
Image Evidence: Where Each Blue Pack Photo Comes From
Each image on the register loads from the WordPress media library as its own product record’s main image, so the photo and the written record travel together. The register does not pull pictures from third-party listings and never crops or rebuilds pack art. The Manchester Sapphire Blue photo below is filed under SKU SS-196.
The United Kingdom Sapphire Blue photo below is filed under SKU SS-232.
Both photos show the same blue family of Manchester pack design, which is why the image alone should never be treated as proof of identity.
Load and Dimensions: What the Blue Pack Photos Confirm
The register checks that each image loads successfully, keeps usable dimensions and carries descriptive alt text. The SS-196 Manchester Sapphire Blue record is stored at 600 by 800 pixels, and the SS-232 Manchester United Kingdom Sapphire Blue record at 1012 by 1318. Both photos confirm pack and carton framing only; they are supporting evidence, never the sole basis for identification.
Identity Check: Title, SKU, Carton Quantity and AUD Price
Identity on the register is defined by the complete written title and the SKU, not by the picture. Every Manchester carton contains 10 packs, and the carton is the only unit offered. The current price for both blue records is A$195.50, with a regular price of A$230.00. A third blue record, Sapphire Blue (SS-214), also lists at the same price, and its photo is filed below.
So if a shopper searches by colour alone, three records can match: SS-196, SS-214 and SS-232. The only reliable way to identify a sapphire blue SKU is to compare the complete title on the record page with the title you are checking. For an Australia cigarette price 2026 snapshot, the blue Manchester records all list at the same A$195.50; price will not separate them.
Catalogue Context: Four Blue Manchester Records
The Manchester category holds nine carton records, and four of them are blue-toned: Manchester Special Edition Blue (SS-191), Manchester Sapphire Blue (SS-196), Sapphire Blue (SS-214) and Manchester United Kingdom Sapphire Blue (SS-232). The Manchester category archive groups all nine. Our earlier Manchester cigarettes guide covers the full family and its flavours, and the 2026 carton price and brand map lists all 28 SKUs across the seven brands on the register. The same rule applies everywhere in this Manchester cigarettes comparison: title and SKU come first, image as supporting evidence.
How to Choose in Minutes
Three quick steps close the loop. First, read the complete carton title on the product page, for example the Manchester Sapphire Blue record (SS-196) or the Manchester United Kingdom Sapphire Blue record (SS-232). Second, match the SKU, because the blue colour and the price will not separate the records. Third, confirm the image loads from that same record page and check the live AUD price and stock status. If the photo you are holding shows a blue Manchester pack and you are not sure which SKU matches it, compare the full title first and order by SKU, not by picture.
