Mike Waters (mikewaters) | 3 comments Hi,

I found two editions of 'The Complete Sherlock Holmes' having the same cover/page count/publisher/publish date, each having distinct goodreads edition pages (they are clearly IMO the same edition).

The first has the the correct ISBN, while the second has none. The first has a generic blurb for the title's description, while the second has a rather meaningful description that is specific to the edition.

What would the merge policy be in this case?

Thanks!

Cassidy O'Connor | 1 comments My book has been on GoodReads since August, suddenly a second copy showed up and I can't determine why. They appear to be the same except like the above thread except one has the ISBN and one doesn't. Can you please merge:
