Sales - "Heroes & Thieves"
« on: October 10, 2007, 09:17:55 am »
How much do you guys think H&T is going to sell in its first week of release?

Top 40 debut? More or less than 50.000 copies?

All bets are in.  :)

I'm thinking first week sales of around 18,000-20,000 copies, and an initial chart position of somewhere between 40 and 50. I'm hoping for it to at least scrape the top 40, but I don't think that's very likely.

It's the number-12 album on iTunes right now... not a bad start.

That's really good!  When I checked yesterday it wasn't even in the top 100.

I think Regis & Kelly will guarantee at least 20,000. Still haven't got my copy, though. :(

First day sales for HaT weren't posted at Hits Daily Double... so that's not necessarily a good sign. I can see this getting 20-25k, but we'll see.

there are no first day numbers on HDD right now, its not exclusive to Carlton

Id estimate another 26,000 or so copies in week one, maybe more. I think shes much more on the promo circuit this time round, which should make up for the lack of a strong single

Well....Harmonium did like 40,000 opening week, right? I'm guessing 60,000 at the most, including downloads. I'm pretty psyched. It seems to be doing really well.

JLo's been dead for awhile. However, Heroes & Thieves is #12 on iTunes and #180 or so on Amazon. Those are some damned good sales. I think we'll be pleasantly surprised.
