Thanks to all who responded on my original post. Many, many thanks especially to Melanie D. and Jeri D. for all your advice about the rules here at PBS. Bernard was correct in saying that Melanie knows the rules by heart and gives great advice.

It took me a while, but I pm'd both of the people about sending me the wrong books. I used the words that both Melanie and Jeri suggested.I am trying to work out a solution with both of them. I also RWAPed the one book with the blue marker on the text page and requested a credit back. As for the RC condition not being honored, I requested my credit back so that I could reorder the book.

Sara, thanks for suggesting that I look up the ISBN info on each of the books wrongly sent. They both are totally different books than I ordered and not different versions. I found valuable information about one of the books that I received by looking up the ISBNs. The wrong book that I received is a WL book and is currently wished by 53 members. So, I am thinking that the sender made an honest mistake and errored in her shipping. I suggested to her that I send the book to the original requestor if she (the sender) sends me a credit to cover postage. Then I told her that I hope to receive the book I ordered, also.

As you advised, I am not marking the two books as received until I finally do receive them, if I do at all.

I am waiting to hear from all three members and will let you know what transpires.
