When my replacement turned out to be the same printing (Mar 2014), I contacted 
them again and they refunded my money, so don't give up. Even though it's a 
pain, it might pave the way to make it easier for those that follow us.

You know, this is the first time I�ve had trouble with Amazon, and I�m
really
disappointed. The replacement arrived today, and, sure enough, it was
a 1st
printing. But the copyright page has been cut out of this one. But on
the
otherwise blank page it immediately followed, right about �The Sibley
Guide to
Birds" in the top right corner, in blue ink, is a person�s name
with the date,
3/2014. So they sent me a book that had been returned.

There were instructions on The
Birder's Library
Blog
<http://www.birderslibrary.com/news/book_news/sibley-guide-2nd-edition-free-
replacement.htm>on
getting
a replacement right from the publisher, Random House. I followed
those
instructions by calling Random House directly. They had an automated
message
ready for me, instructing me where to send the book's bar code to
receive a
replacement.
To save all of you the phone call, do this: *cut off the bar code
from the
back cover of the book and mail it to:*

Penguin Random
House
Attention Consumer Services / DMS
400 Hahn Rd.
Westminster, MD 
21157

Be sure to include your return address with it!
