Currently I've just picked whichever one I like less and added "(TOR Imprint)" or something to the title metadata so that Calibre will see them as two distinct entries, but I'm wondering if there's a better way to do this.
I have a couple other examples of this as well, like an initial, cheap $1 version of a book I bought that was probably from a bogus Indian publisher and riddled with typos, and then later purchased a more professional, authorized edition from Penguin / Vintage International later.

The cheap versions you just delete in favor of the real ones.
As for the others, you just make sure that the publisher field is filled in and you'll know which version it is when you look at the publisher.
