Mia Downing (miadowning) | 2 comments Hi there,

Trained for Seduction one of the editions listed has a wrong ISBN. These are the numbers listed from the publisher. I'm not sure where the other number came from but I think someone tried to find the book and made a page for it.

Incorrect: ISBN 2940015241839

ISBN Digital: 978-1-61217-540-9
ISBN-13: 978-1-61217-539-3
ASIN: B008UCKU96

I'm not sure if the two editions can be merged or not, but if so, that would be nice. The weird ISBN was giving me trouble when I tried to list the book as a giveaway, or I wouldn't care.

Thank you for your help!

Cait (tigercait) | 4988 comments ISBN-13s which begin with 294- are assigned by B&N to ebook editions for the Nook. They're correct as additional editions.

If you have the publisher's information up, you might want to add two more editions for the 978-1-61217-540-9 and B008UCKU96 editions.


❂ Murder by Death  (murderbydeath) Mia, the "Incorrect ISBN" is actually a Barnes and Noble ID number for your ebook:

We try to include the BNID for the Nook edition - that way if someone clicks on the Nook button or B&N button, it will take them straight to your book.

I'll go ahead and add editions for a straight ebook using the ISBN you have above, and a Kindle edition as well.

Mia Downing (miadowning) | 2 comments Okay, this I didn't know! I went to Amazon and looked there, because I did know they have a different number. I'm sorry to waste your time!


❂ Murder by Death  (murderbydeath) Not a waste at all, as you've given us information that allowed us to add the other editions! :)

I've added them and combined them all. You should be fine for your give away.

lol - talk about all chiming in at once! :)

It's not a waste of time, and we like questions around here. :)
