I have few books that I seem to have two copies of. Some were free first-on-series and somewhere along the way, Kobo got a new edition, but added it as a new book and removed the old. I could still download the old, but couldn't see the details in the store. For some, I deleted the old version and "bought" the new version.

I've also had a couple of problems with previews or wishlisted that kept appearing in those lists after buying the book. If I viewed the details, it would show that I had purchased it and allow me to read it. I suspect that some of these hit a problem like above and the book on the wishlist is not actually the book I ended up buying. There is some support in the database on the device to handle the relation between editions, but I haven't really looked at it.
