Two weeks ago while buying A ONE in Yesasia I read this:

YesAsia.com is an official sales data provider to the music sales charts reported by Oricon Inc. The fulfilled sale quantities of all Japan Version CD, DVD, and Blu-ray music products at YesAsia.com are reported to Oricon on a weekly basis. However, according to Oricon policy, only orders that are shipped to Japan are reflected in the Oricon music charts. Sales of Japan Version music products that are shipped outside Japan will not be reflected in the Oricon charts. These sales data are confidential and will not be available to the public.

It was the first time that I had notice this and I was really dissapointed. I thought I was contributing to get Ayu a good ranking. What a silly rule from Oricon.
Now your telling me that even sales from the arena are not properly counted. What is up with Oricon?
