Frank | 2 comments I added an edition of David Foster Wallace's The Broom of the System, it's an earlier Avon Books edition with different cover but the ISBN number (0380719916) duplicates that listed for a Canadian edition (non-Avon). So I had to leave the ISBN number blank in order for GR to accept the listing.

Lisa Vegan (lisavegan) | 2400 comments Frank, In the book description field you can put the ISBN(s) and state that the edition is the same as the one with the same ISBN but has a different cover. The more information you put in the book description field, the less chance there is for some librarian to delete your edition.
