When viewing my Wishlist in details mode, the "Purchased" attribute is displayed and sometimes shows "Best Buy" (don't know why), sometimes it shows "$0.00", and sometimes it shows nothing.

The Purchased attribute should be hidden completely in Wish List details.  The Personalize window doesn't  let you enter the data.  You haven't purchased it yet. 

Apparently when the data was restored from my 2.4 database it put random information in these fields?

I'm still seeing this with 3.0.1... Anyone else having this problem?

Hmmmm. I see what you mean. Mine usually show a Purchased Date and sometimes a vendor (although not Best Buy, but some of the Australian and New Zealand shops I use).

I think it was the same with 2.x actually but because you couldn't see the Purchase data in that list before it didn't show up. However a number of times when I moved from Wishlist to Ordered I found the Purchase Date was filled in with a date from long ago.

After restoring my 2.4.0.868 database into 3.0.2.1124, I noticed that some (12%) of the DVDs on my Wish List have a Purchased Date. I cannot find a method by which a Purchase Date could be entered into the Wish List in 2.4.0.868, and I know that I never move DVDs from Owned to Wish List.

I want the Purchase Date column to be displayed in the "All" Collection List with the Purchase Date being the method to distinguish "Owned" from "Wish List".

Is there a way to clear Purchase Date from the database for DVDs in the Wish List?

I found I also have a few that have a Purchase Date. I believe I added them to orders at some point and then canceled the oprder or it happened accidentally. When moving them back to the Wish List, the date obviously remained.

Quoting dom5885:

So I tried and this worked:
Move them to the Ordered list and delete the Purchase Date in the Personalization window. Then move them back to the Wish List, the Purchase Date will be gone....
