Any suggestions other than the obvious about why BO80-90 is outselling The Bomb?

Best Of 80-90 has been available at around £6.99 in most places in UK (& most probably Ireland) since January sales began whilst Bomb has mainly been £9.99-£17.99.
 
WOW, now its at #14! I guess they update their sales every hour or something.
 
Don't know if its a permanent thing or not but this week Canada has a top 200 album chart.

Htdaab - #142
last week - #157
2 weeks ago - #145
 
HTDAAB returns to Japans Top 300 album chart this week at #278, on sales of 698 copies.
Overall sales are apparently 243,462, but this is hard to believe considering it was about that figure when it left the charts months and months ago.

Oricon sales in Japan concern only the time when the album was charted.

The Bomb is back in the Top 100 in Italia at #97.

86-x-x-x-x-80-78-62-x-x-

Gosh, this is all rather incredible !

At Amazon.co.uk it's now at # 43 so i'm quite confident it's going to return to the official top 75 next week.

... for this week though it dropped back out of the top 200 (from # 197) but probably still sold another 1,000 (so est UK total now = 1,207,000). Also on UK chart this week :

Best Of 80-90 # 92 (# 81) - with prob about 2,500
COBL # 211 (# 207)
Sometimes # 243 (RE)

TV Airplay : OOTS # 5 (# 4)
Top 100 airplay : OOTS # 80 (NE)
