Then you say that with Duty they were expecting it to sell 3 million, with (miss)understood they were expecting it to sell a million, with Secret 750,000 and now with NEXT LEVEL 500,000?
(and that's without mentioning other of their artists with a huge difference between the shipped and sold copies).

And, like Kendelle says, there are a lot of stores unaccounted for by Oricon.

But didn't Duty sell 2.9 million? That's pretty awesomely close to the shipped number. Where did you get the shipped number by the way?
