Pricing: Price should be treated as bundle pricing for a CIB FFVIII package that appears to be a non-standard/non-barcode “not to be sold separately” variant plus an extra promo insert; not clean evidence for the standard retail-barcode CIB variant.

Unknown candidates

  • Final Fantasy VIII (PAL) non-barcode / “NOT TO BE SOLD SEPARATELY” packaging variant high
    Listing title claims “Non Barcode” and the back cover shows “NOT TO BE SOLD SEPARATELY,” suggesting a pack-in/NFR-style or bundle-distributed version that may differ from standard retail-barcode releases; cannot be safely forced to the standard PAL CIB variant without confirming identifiers like EAN and catalog codes.
    "NOT TO BE SOLD SEPARATELY" label on back cover | No barcode visible on back cover in provided image | PAL markings
  • Chocobo Racing “Coming Soon” PAL PlayStation promo insert (pack-in leaflet/postcard) medium
    Insert is an extra marketing piece that may or may not be standard for all PAL FFVIII copies; should be tracked separately to learn frequency and any bundle premium.

Human review questions

  • Is there an EAN/barcode anywhere on the inlay/spine not shown, or is it truly non-barcode packaging?
  • What are the exact catalog numbers on each disc (e.g., SLES-xxxxx) and do they match the case/manual region/edition?
  • Are disc undersides clean or scratched (condition verification)?
  • Is the Chocobo Racing insert a postcard, leaflet, or multi-page foldout (and is there any identifying code on the back)?

Warnings

  • Only front/back of case and disc label sides are shown; no clear UPC/EAN or full catalog codes are readable.
  • Cannot confirm whether the 'NOT TO BE SOLD SEPARATELY' label is original print, a sticker, or replaces the barcode area.
  • Disc condition (scratches) cannot be assessed from label-side-only photos.
