What the hell's wrong with those numbers? 700k in sales for A COMPLETE would be quite impressive in my opinion.

Nothing's wrong?

I just don't really like (miss)understood's peaking point, lol. It deserved so much more as an album (sales, cover, booklet, etc.)

Ooooooh, I thought the "NOOO" was because you thought that was a bad range for A COMPLETE to sell in. Though I wholeheartedly agree that (m)u should have sold much more, but both covers were hideous.

The CD+DVD cover was tolerable, but what was up with the CD-only cover? That was just creepy. I suppose no one on Ayumi's staff had the guts to tell her that, or she went temporarily blind while considering covers.

^^Are you serious???? I love that CD only cover!!!

I wasn't expecting it to go down to No. 2 so soon....

indeed, everything seemed rushed and fanmade.

I'm sure A Complete will chart beyond week 16 if Guilty managed to do that. Friday's sales were quite hideous. I hope A Complete's 2nd week sales don't go below AB2's 2nd week sales.

8523 TODAY!!! YAY

Really? Bummer, i was hoping for a 5 figure amount.

6th day of 2nd week
Position : #2
sales : 8,523

estimated 2nd week sales

2nd week sales
1->2->2->2->2->2 Ayumi Hamasaki - 17,372 + 12,286 + 10,015 + 7,539 + 6,777 + 8,523 (X1.7) = 106,270

uwhh not too high boost

yaaaaaaaaaay!!! ayuuuuuuuuuu goooooooooo!!!!!!!

still XD it's a boost :innocent

mmhhh with that sales she can not beat Heart Station ....

It's pretty sad that a HUGE compilation album of Japan's most popular female singer can't even beat a studio album by Utada Hikaru. XD

Edit: OH
MY
GOD
I'm not on moderation anymore.
haha :3

100k for second week only D;

Thanks for the update, and i hope AC will get around 80K~ for next week.

i dont think everyone realizes that for the most part, tons of japanese people already own most of her old albums. only hardcore fans really care about remastered tracks, unreleased cover work, and an old concert that didnt really have much of a draw to it. i mean seriously, why would this beat an original album? "i'm going to go buy a cd with a bunch of songs on it that ive had for 10 years!!" sooooo many people already have her albums and stuff, and for the most part, the whole "deluxe box" stuff isnt something most people care about--and to be honest, i think this was directed more at her hardcore fans than anyone else, hence the "thanks" price--she wouldn't be thanking casual fans for buying a cd once in a while.

i think everyone should be happy with these sales.

im not trying to sound disrespectful, and i love this release, but i dont think it "deserves" to sell a million copies or even beat namie's album. it's a cool collection, and it would have been cool if it sold a bunch, but to be honest, these sales are very, very good.

isnt that bad? reminds HS has been released 2 years after UB and ayu release AC just a year after A BEST II
then HS is big because of Hana yori dango OST only

and last friends.

anyways...I think ppl should be happy with the sales...and I think 2nd week's sales will end up to be more than A BEST 2.

already surpass it.. A BEST II white 2nd week sales is 101,894

it will end 120K IMO

yea I just checked...

97,354 (black) 101,894 (white)
