Dobby (dobby0390) | 7863 comments Since the book that appears to be incorrect was imported by an Amazon bot, I have turned this issue over to Support for their handling.

Dobby (dobby0390) | 7863 comments What is your concern about the book?

Dobby (dobby0390) | 7863 comments Ah, I see. Actually, that's not unusual. Indie authors might list a book for a short time, then pull it from the market for various reasons. Since people want to shelf the edition they have, we don't remove books or editions that are out of print. Occasionally we'll run across a record that just doesn't look right. In those cases, we refer the book to Staff so they can research it further.

In this case, since this specific edition was published in 2017 and might be out of print and no longer available, we would leave it in the catalog.

Thanks for checking. I hope my explanation was helpful and not confusing. :)
