Image Matching Desk: A Short Reference

CigDo uses Image Matching to make product-image verification easier to verify. Images are supporting evidence, not the sole identity of a product record. This guide is a factual reference for Australian adults aged 18 or older.

Start with the authoritative record

Open the live product page rather than relying on a search snippet, saved image or marketplace description. Read the full title, then match the SKU and sale unit before comparing price or availability.

A catalogue example

Use Manchester Light Blue Cigarettes – 1 Carton (10 Packs) (SKU SS-208) as a worked example. The name identifies the record, the SKU separates it from similarly named products, and the current page confirms the carton quantity, AUD price and stock state.

The verification sequence

  • Confirm carton quantity and current status.
  • Compare the full title.
  • Match the SKU.
  • Use the image as a visual cross-check.

What this prevents

Using image, title and SKU together makes catalogue comparisons more defensible. The most common error is treating a similar package image as proof that two records are identical. A short, repeatable check is more reliable than guessing from packaging colour or a partial title.
