On Amazon, book IDs are needed. For pre-ISBN print books, unique ASINs are supplied so that second-hand booksellers can list their books. (They are only valid on Amazon, for that one copy, so they should never be listed on GR.)

I didn't know that, thank for clarifying! But still that doesn't change the fact, that the edition listed on GR is paperback with an actual isbn number so in my opinion it does not match with the edition from amazon, so i don't think the cover can be uploaded from there.

Bea #50:

Tony, if you will provide the details for the paperback copy (publisher, etc.) as well as a copy of the cover, we can add it for you.

I did a search for the cover you posted matching the ISBN and could not find an acceptable source.


message 89: by Bea (new)

Bea Tony, for items #27-33, can you confirm that your copies match the ISBN of the books you listed? If so an ACE can be created for each of those books.

I have the same ISBN 586044280 with this cover: http://tonybrick.com/temp/books/billi...

Thank you!"


Tony, can you please verify that the publisher, pub date, format, and page count also match GR ISBN 586044280 in your book?


message 93: by Bea (new)

Bea Tony wrote: "#5 I think a new edition is needed, as the Amazon link I posted is the cover I have but I have paperback - the 2 editions on GR are hardcover."

Tony, to provide an alternate cover edition, I would need you to scan the cover you have and to provided the information (publisher, pub date, and page count) for your book.
