Manchester Lights vs Sapphire Blue is a common lunch-break check, and the answer is straightforward: they are two different carton records in the Qyvaxon Image Provenance Register. Manchester Lights Cigarettes is SKU SS-208; Sapphire Blue Cigarettes is SKU SS-214. Both belong to the Manchester category, both are one carton of 10 packs, both are in stock, and both list at A$195.50 with a regular listed price of A$230.00. Because the price matches and both cartons use blue-tone Manchester styling, a thumbnail photo alone is not enough to confirm which record you are viewing. The written record title and the SKU are the reliable identifiers. This visual comparison verification shows where each photo comes from and how to settle the question in minutes.
Manchester Lights vs Sapphire Blue: The Two Records at a Glance
The table below was read live from the WooCommerce catalogue. Both records are simple products sold as a single carton and both are marked in stock. Record names link to their product pages.
| SKU | Full carton record | Current listed price | Regular listed price | Stock | Carton size | Catalogue note |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SS-208 | Manchester Lights Cigarettes | A$195.50 | A$230.00 | In stock | 10 packs | “Lights” variant per record title |
| SS-214 | Sapphire Blue Cigarettes | A$195.50 | A$230.00 | In stock | 10 packs | “Sapphire Blue” colourway per record title |
The only difference between the two lines is the product name and the SKU; carton size, stock state and prices are identical. That is exactly why the SKU matters: SS-208 for Manchester Lights, SS-214 for Sapphire Blue. It also explains why the register treats the photo as supporting evidence: when two Manchester cartons share a price and a blue-tone design family, the written title plus SKU is the first source of truth.
Image Evidence: Where Each Carton Photo Comes From
Each register image loads from the WordPress media library as the 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 pack art. The Manchester Lights photo below is filed under SKU SS-208.
The Sapphire Blue photo below is filed under SKU SS-214.
At a glance the two record photos differ in overall tone: the SS-208 image is predominantly light with blue-toned detailing, while the SS-214 image is a darker portrait carton photograph. That brightness difference is only a first hint, not a reliable identifier. The reliable check is the record title and the SKU beside each image.
Load and Dimensions: Verifying the Record Images
Both attachments return HTTP 200 from the media library and render correctly on the product pages. The Manchester Lights image is media attachment 75, a 1000 by 1000 pixel PNG. The Sapphire Blue image is media attachment 76, a 1012 by 1349 pixel JPG in portrait orientation. Both files are reused consistently across the product page and the Manchester category listing, keeping the provenance trail short: one media attachment, one SKU, one record.
The stored alt text for each image matches its product title. If an image ever fails to load, the written record remains the primary identifier: the full catalogue title plus the SKU, not the picture.

Catalogue Context: Two Blue-Tone Manchester Records
Both records belong to the Manchester product category, which groups the Manchester carton records in the register.

Readers who want the wider Manchester price picture can also consult the Manchester cigarettes price and flavours guide.
How to Choose in a Lunch Break
When you only have a few minutes, follow this order:
- Read the full record title: Manchester Lights Cigarettes and Sapphire Blue Cigarettes are different names.
- Confirm the SKU: SS-208 for Manchester Lights, SS-214 for Sapphire Blue.
- Use the record image as supporting evidence only: a light pack for SS-208, a darker portrait photo for SS-214.
- Verify the current listed price and stock on the product page before deciding.
Both records list at the same price today, so price alone cannot separate them. The SKU and the full title confirm which carton record you are looking at.
