I can't find anything but 1st couple of weeks sales, does anyone know an estimate of how much the albums sold overall? Hoping its selling slowly but surely as they power through this tour.
In my local HMV they had a dozen or so copies a few weeks ago put it out the front on a 2 for £15 offer and there's only 2 left now :-)

I have no idea, somebody some time ago posted the USA sales, and it was around 60k. I bet that number will increase significantly when "Control" gets a proper release and promo.
My bet goes half a million worldwide.

I've heard about something like 200,000 units worldwide so far.
[not sure]

It's around 210,000 worldwide. Mostly units from the US tally it up.

It's around 210,000 worldwide. Mostly units from the US tally it up. That's a pretty good number given that they're on their own independent label now right? I hope this means they can afford to make another album. (Just as long as it's not another 7 years lol)

they're very likely making way more off this than from BLM to be honest
also Shirley said in an interview that the record was 'picking up speed' around the world

Hmm, I was hoping it would be more like $500k. As long as the album sales and concert tickets sales are good enough for another album to be viable I don't really care!
Has anyone else noticed there seems to be confusion over how many total album sales they have? There's estimates between 12 and 17 million. I know S/T and V2.0 sold about 4m each, and BG about 2m. Would guess BLM sold about 1.5m and AG 1m, which would make 12.5m. Where's the extra 5m come from? Sorry if this is mega geeky, I love stats!

I do love stats too. And since Bleed Like Me 12m has been the number. Of course the number has been increased. I would really love to know the updated numbers !!
