You did everything right.  Books are posted by ISBN, so you posted yours correctly.  The book the other member is wishing for must have a different ISBN.  There is no way that you can tell them that you have a different copy of the same book.  They probably got an email informing them that there was a different edition posted.  Maybe they only want a particular edition.

Sounds like you have a different version of the book that has a different ISBN #. The way you entered it is correct, since it has a different ISBN, your version is not WLed. You can post in the Book Bazaar that you have this version, there is a thread designated to WL books with different ISBNs, you can also put it in your signature line so people can see that you have it.

Well, I looked at your bookshelf and it just so happens that book was on MY wishlist. I ordered it from you. Thanks for posting the question!
