One of the titles on my wish list is duplicated. Same ISBN for both and same position in line. I thought that wasn't possible. Usually when I forget and try to add a book that is already there the system tells me that item is already on the list and won't add it again.

Since I don't know how I ended up with two, I'm afraid that if I delete one both will go. Does anyone know?

I agree with Ruth.  I know they've been working on the site, as I've seen some weird glitches lately.  I'd guess this is another one.

I have the same problem, and as I'm #1 for the book, I was afraid to  cancel one just in case.  Guess I'll contact TPTB and have them cancel one for me.  Thanks.  Also, this wasn't current as I WLed the book in August.  Pat

This happened to me once and I asked TPTB to remove it. They did and they said I could have deleted one and it would have kept me in line for the other. Like you, I was afraid to do that. I would only do it if I was last in line when I noticed it.

It happened again and I caught it within a few days. (#16 of #17). It wouldn't be a big deal if I lost one spot. so I deleted one and the other one stayed put. Feel silly now for being such a ninny. But I'm glad to know I can do it myself without losing my place in line.

As I noted above, I had the same problem.  Contacted TPTB and they took care of it and I didn't lose my place, but freed up a spot.  Pat
