Books with limited print runs may not be found on WorldCat or elsewhere on the net. That's not a reason to delete them from Goodreads.

Loreley | 9 comments Could you please delete the edition without ISBN? they're absolutely identical, someone just added one without ISBN. I could only combine those two, but can't delete because it has 5 reviews https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Elizabeth (Alaska) no details, please merge with separated default

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...

then see there are many ways to transpose numbers in an ISBN, with the other two editions on this default. :-(

The correct ISBN13 is 9781566893541 (verified on publisher's page)

and recombine with

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

thank you!

EDIT: See also Post 230 below for same title, different separated default

The other two have the corresponding* ISBN/ISBN13 and they should probably both be in one and the other made into an ACE?

238 They have each a different ISBN, so those are not duplicates.

Someone had merged them all into one edition but it was not recombined with the original so I combined them. Also the edition with the ISBN10 had been merged, so I added the ISBN10 to the remaining edition, as well as format which was missing. The merged/deleted edition had a different publishing year (2005) as well, but I left that as is. I'm not sure this went how it should have.

This is the edition that was left: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...

Did the merged edition have the same cover? According to Worldcat, the pub year is 2005, so I would change it to that.

ETA From your original comment about an ACE it would seem the covers were different? :/


message 235: by Anna (last edited Jan 25, 2016 04:05AM) (new)

Anna (vegfic) | 190 comments I can't remember the covers unfortunately, or if there was something else besides the publishing year that was different. I'll change it to 2005.

stray, incorrect pub year, looks like it was just imported from Amazon, sale from a 3rd party seller.

#227 language is listed as English, both other editions are Japanese. Can you confirm this book is only published in Japanese, not in English?
#245 reverted isbn move and cover change. Covers are different, no deleting.

Please don't move isbn's from one edition to another. It is more difficult to determine if the deleting is valid.

Looks like a duplicate for the only other edition. Can you check?
