RussTCB Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Thanks for posting that SJ! I'm not sure what the number means either. I may do some digging and try to find first week sales from some other rock blu-rays to compare it to.edit-So far I've found one site claiming that the Vegas blu ray by Def Leppard sold 10907 copies in the first week. I think that was a blu-ray/CD combo though so it's not exactly apples to apples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magisme Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 So it's #1 because there's nothing else new selling well? Compared to Crue and Sabbath this isn't very good. Am I missing something? Are those legit comparisons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
