Pricing: Do not use as clean single-variant price evidence because the photos only clearly show the Platinum case/cover art and barcode; the included discs and manual are not visually confirmed (even though PriceCharting metadata marks CIB and the back cover mentions 4 discs). Use as bundle pricing evidence for a presumed CIB Platinum PAL set, pending human confirmation of discs/manual completeness and condition.

Unknown candidates

  • Final Fantasy VIII (PAL) PlayStation Platinum edition with barcode 711719193920 medium
    Listing/product metadata provides a different EAN/GTIN than the barcode visible on the back inlay, and the exact Platinum print/issue cannot be confidently matched without confirming identifiers on discs/manual/spine.
    Platinum packaging band | Visible barcode 711719193920 (back inlay) | PAL mark

Human review questions

  • Are all 4 discs actually included and are they original PAL discs for this release?
  • Is the manual included, and does it match the Platinum PAL release?
  • Is there any additional insert (registration/advertising) inside the case?
  • Confirm whether the visible barcode 711719193920 corresponds to this specific PAL Platinum issue and reconcile with metadata EAN 711719858423.

Warnings

  • Only front and back of the case are shown; discs/manual are not photographed.
  • Some fine print on back cover is not readable due to glare/low resolution.
  • Metadata (PriceCharting) indicates CIB and gives EAN/GTIN, but that value is not visibly confirmed in the photos.
