message 1: by Ema (new) - rated it 5 stars

Ema (emastimpy) | 99 comments I own the Romanian translation and I want to add it, but I noticed that the ISBN printed on the book and the one that appears on the publisher's website are different (by 2 numbers only):
9789737480620
and
9789735680620
Which is the correct one, I wonder? What would you advise me to do?

(if I add the one on the book, it can be scanned with the mobile phone)

Ellie Loredan (ellieloredan) | 113 comments You should add the one on your book.

Every edition of a book gets a new ISBN (or at least that's how it should be). So the one on the publisher's website might be the ISBN for a reprinting.

Ema (emastimpy) | 99 comments Thank you for the advice!
It seems to be the only edition, though, thus my confusion...
