no it was 30k total to date and nearly 20k the first week and a half - remember they did that presell thing so it was over 10k - it was just to fudge numbers - ill ask kim g about it to be sure but i remember that presale thing artificially jacked numbers up

peace

yeah i didnt expect much but i was hoping they would get a big underground following. hopefully more people hear about it and grab the cd

Mr. Sinister · Subject: Re: Album sells 26/7/2007, 21:34

Only 30,000 to this date? Whoa I thought I was way more than that.

nope for sure on the aggregate total

Mr. Sinister · Subject: Re: Album sells 27/7/2007, 07:07

Wow. Man this is disappointing. I thought maybe around 75,000+

ha 75k in their wildest dreams

i did ask kim g about it and she confirmed it was 30k to date and she further said you were right on the first week album sales being 10k - she also added the numbers were inflated the first week due to that presale thing at the shows - when they were selling the cds at the shows before the actual release date - so i got that right - but it wasnt 20k

peace
