TheOriginalOne 10,203 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I think I remember something about DWAS alone had already done the equivalent of 500k but apparently they won’t count for first week numbers Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichAssPiss 4,866 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 I'd guess between 250,000 and 300,000. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that its been 24 hours since release and they are already saying its hitting #1 must mean the numbers are looking good. True but there’s a huge difference between going number one and being a gorgeously explosive force. 300k is really great but doesn’t give the latter Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Taylor Swift could pull 1M. And I think she was only able to do it with TTVD (The Tortured VARIENTS department). Midnights was shy of 1M Fixed. 1 hour ago, andy232000 said: I already see stan twitter twisting this sadly. The same album with different color discs are not variants. You are still getting the same album. If fans buy 4 copies for some reason that is up to them. At least Gaga is not purposefully persuading fans to but more copies by adding different demos or voice notes in each version. She has only stuck to the typical deluxe tracks. I completely agree with this. Taylor releases albums with DIGITAL varients, sold for cheap and just for one or two exclusive tracks (usually acoustic versions of the original song), which her fans eat up. Gaga on the other hand, has some exclusive to certain stores, or just unique collectors items. There’s a difference between different color vinyls for $40 each and $5 for a digital with one new song.

Would be a nice touch before tracking MAYHEM sales weeks Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think there’s even a slim chance of that no. I would love it, this album deserves, but no absolutely not near that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, DWAS doesn't count towards the first week's sales. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nagini 618 Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Think we may be reading into it too much, but if she does 400K..... her peers better sit up straight Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

spicemuncher 1,697 Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 200-225k is very respectable. Walmart, Urban Outfitters and Amazon all had dispatch delays, so I think it will trend up and break through the 225k threshold once the Tuesday update comes. Not to forget SNL is happening tonight, so that will push it a little too! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
