Like how is there no overlap of barcodes at all? There’s are millions if not, billions of items around the world that have unique barcodes. Are they differentiated per country or something?

I collect a variety of things and apps for keeping track of collectibles often use UPC to identify items uniquely. I find duplicate entries for what should be unique UPC codes all the time.
Granted, a lot of this is probably just people miss-entering data. But another thing I have noticed is that bootleg manufacturers will often steal barcodes off completely different products, or even reuse the same one. Also, since many collectibles are old, there’s the possibility some of the barcodes have been reassigned.
