There is no difference. Pet shops give them fancy names to make them sound special/exclusive, it makes people pay more. There are 3 kinds of dwarf hamster.

Roborovski dwarf

Winter white

Russian Campbell

There is also a Chinese Dwarf Hamster but they are not a true dwarf hamster (genetically speaking)

I'd advise you to go to a hamster breeder, they know more what they are doing, or even better, a rescue. Good luck.

Sapphire is not a type of hamster, instead it is a colour. A winter white can be agouti (prominent grey) coloured, sapphire (smokey grey) or pearl (white). Therefore, a winter white which is sapphire coloured is the same species as a winter white which is pearl coloured. The only difference is, they are coated in different coloured fur.

The winter dwarf hamster and the Russian dwarf have a slight of a different color, and in the winter the winter white dwarf turns white.

The winter white has a brownish color to it, but a Russian dwarf is a grayish white color.
