I was actually holding a copy in a shop and put it back, then went home and listened before realizing I fucked up. But by a stroke of dumb luck the next day my girl randomly showed up with a copy.

Plarocks Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 (edited) Given this album is in the “top 10” on three different “rock album charts,” why have I not heard this on ANY of the local “rock” radio stations here in DC? Radio is so VERY out of touch with where music is. Edited May 2, 2018 by Plarocks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bladewillisisdead Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 11,000...so that's the 10,000 green and 1,000 splits. Unless they're counting the orders for the black? Digital sales? Is it like "Well, all of them have been ordered from the distributor so that means they all sold"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you have somebody get it for you or were you able to track one down. I’m holding out for one but think I may just settle for black. Any tips on how to get one for retail would be appreciated.

I believe for a long time the model has been "# ordered by distributors = number sold and counted by Billboard." I think that is still the model.

Wasnt sure if maybe they were including digital sales. 50 minutes ago, GrapplesInStereo said: Did you have somebody get it for you or were you able to track one down.

I'd say keep checking discogs and hopefully soon some people get sick of waiting for their marked up copies to sell and the prices go back down.

I’m scanning Discogs a few times a day but haven’t found anything at retail yet. Man, if any board members want to do another member a solid and hook me up, I’d really appreciate it. Obviously I have no problem paying for your time, shipping, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure its a number rounded down to the most accurate clean and even milestone number. I doubt any of the numbers reported for any records sales are every precisely the actual number i.e. 11,376 or 24,894, etc. EDIT: Also, this: https://www.billboard.com/biz/billboard-charts-legend Scroll down to Award Certification Levels >Albums chart 1 hour ago, MicLima said: Bunch of black just hit discogs for $24.99 if anyone is interested. https://www.discogs.com/sell/release/11893131?ev=rb Poor bastards.

Hello Kibbe Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 I just picked up the last copy my LRS had on the shelf... didn't have a sticker, but it ended up being the green variant. The owner of the shop was telling me they had green copies, but all they can order now are black. Not sure if the other green copies he sold had a sticker or if he knew this one was green... maybe he just didn't want to ruin the surprise.
