Hi Soldatti.

Thanks for the info, that's really cool. Now, we can add these numbers to the others and know every detail because we estimated 61,000 for the last week!

Thanks a lot!

The last number is total sales so far I assume. But where does 350,013 stand for?

grtz, Pascal.
 
I assume that is the year-to-date total.
Edit: it could also be the sales of the week prior.

Hi Soldatti, have you received any figures for UK, Canada, Australia and Japan in the last two weeks?

for UK we miss actually 4 weeks (we've estimated also the last 2 weeks of the year: 150k on christmas week and 30k the following)
 
Yeah, I remember that we had figures for Japan 1 month ago. Where did they come from?

i remember total sales being at 671k (summing data from your previous posts about the first 4 weeks) WITHOUT christmas week...and we know that at the end of the year total sales for U2 were 855k (official data: there's a therad with all-years' sales in UK for album and singles)...so i think you miss in this 780k the christmas week :)

Sorry, the number is 880,000 copies...
 
Thanks a lot, Soldatti you're the King.

For UK this means, that the sales for 2004 of 855k includes the 27k posted at 8 Jan. Additionally 14k (15. Jan.) and 13k (22. Jan) the album has now a total of 882k. Respect.
 
@Soldatti

Do you know anything about the last sales in Canada or Australia?

I see, you come from Argentinia. How is the success of the album there and in Brasilia?

Vertigo is Top 20 on the main radio of the country, remained #1 for 8 weeks on the Top Rock Radio here and the video was #1 in both MTV and Muchmusic.
The album sold 20,000 copies to date here (Gold Award) but it sold twice if we count ilegal copies (+60% of the market here is piracy)
