I know next to nothing about FFVII, so don't get mad if this is ultra common. I was just wanting to know more about this misprint on the back. This is the non-gh version.

There were quite a few that had the same misprint on the back cover. Not sure the numbers, but it may fetch a decent price on ebay.

Q: Will you put the 'i' back in the right spot if I win the auction? I'm a collector and I want everything to be perfect.

A: If the bidding is high enough, I will move any letters around that you desire.

hmm.....I have one like that too.....Can I use your picture if I list mine? my sisters camera doesn't focus good close

the auction still has over 4 days to go so being at 3 bucks right now means nothing

99% of all ebay bidding happens in the last .01 second of the auction. :wall:

I thought they were all like that, I guess I was wrong. Mine has the misprint at least, and its the first thing I noticed when I looked at the back of the box years ago.

I just sold my wifes copy on Ebay (havent shipped it yet) which she claims she bought the day it came out, and hers has the misprint.

I checked my copy, which I KNOW I bought on release day, and it does NOT have the misprint.

Mine is misprint-free. I know I got it the day the game released, because I was working at Funcoland at the time.

Picked up mine on launch day also. No misprint either.

My copy has the misprint. I bought it used though, so I don't know when it was originally purchased.

Speaking of PSX misprints, Sheep (also on PSX) has a funny one:

The second print run of FF7 has the floating "i" error. You can easily tell that it is a newer edition because it has the updated ESRB rating logo. As far as I know, all of the misprints have the newer ESRB logo. The original release version does not have the printing error and has the preliminary ESRB logo.

I didn't know shooting fireballs at 50 foot snakes constituted 'realistic violence'.
