It should be entered in the ID section in the following format:
amazon:B001234ZYX

Seems today things are a little different - it's getting data from Amazon, but when a book is available in both e- and paper formats, it seems to be only getting matches from the paper versions. This wouldn't be so bad were it not for the fact that, apparently due to layout changes for paper book product pages, the plugin can no longer consistently scrape the product description section. It seems to either only grab the "about the author" if there is one, or nothing at all if there's only a "product description" section.
I was going to try to enter the ASIN manually for these books, but if I'm already on the product page to get the ASIN I might as well just copy what I need while I'm there.
