I  just got offered a WL book that I had several versions of on my list........I went to look at where I was in line on the other versions and they are ALL GONE from my list......expected to find them "on hold" while I work through this transaction, but the Alex Cross book is no where to be found.

You tried searching for them on your WL under different headings: author, title, alphabetical, date, etc?

I select the view Hold books, and they come to the top.  If there isn't a WL on the other versions, they do get moved to your RL.

If you look at the ISBN listing for the other version(s), you'll be able to see in the listing if it's on any of your lists.

???? The other version couldn't have been on her Wish List in the first place if there wasn't a Wish List for them. Even if she is the only Wisher, the system wouldn't take her out of line and move it to the RL, it would just put it on Hold. 

 

IIRC Jeannie, you had some other problems with Alex Cross showing up right on your Wish List. Out of order, not visible to you correctly. Try different sorting options to see if they pop up. Go to one of the versions and check its book details page to see if it says it is on your Wish List there.
