A Gold certification given by RIAJ mean that 100,000 copies are shipped/printed to stores to get the stock sold but from the actual amount of copies that already been sold & that Oricon recorded on their website (52,227 & counting) , 47,773 copies have not been sold so far at this point in time

they wouldnt lose that money, they already sold it to the stores.
the stores lose out on the money if they never sell.

avex has already made their money off of it.

It could work that way, or maybe avex print x amount and then send, say, half of it to stores, then send the remaining copies out as stores request a restock (I have no idea how it works in Japan, just an idea)

Cos they would have made 50k copies which have not been sold.

they could do it that way as well, but when ever you talk about RIAJ, that is talking about shipped copies, which means they have all ready been paid for.
But each country does their accounting differently, so it could be different in japan, I dont know... never studied it before.

My friend is upset about the fact that the cd marked career lows for Ayuma

[TeamAyu2004]

it is kinda sad...
I cant wait to see how LOVE again does.

[microphone]

Hopefully these drops in sales won't discourage her from making new music.

[brener]

so now what, ayu will release these "mini-albums" forever? o-o'

[TeamAyu2004]

lord I hope not... 2 mini albums and then an album with just a few new songs...
dont. do. this. to. ME!!!!

[brener]

well, the new "mini albums" are replacing the "singles" actually... cuz of that strike..

[TeamAyu2004]

thats what im saying...
i wouldnt want that.

[brener]

sooner or later we'll know about that...

[freedreamer]

guess we're gonna have more and more mini albums hereafter hahaha

[adantatu2]

Singles, mini-albums, if she keep releasing good music, i don't care

[ayumisrael]

7th Week
Position: #167
Official Sales: 567
Official Total Sales: 52,794

[TeamAyu2004]

well, at least it topped the 50k...
I wonder why this didnt do so well... I guess it had to do with people finding out about the album?
But that seems weird in a single selling heavy country, lol.

[Delicious n Bold]

Maybe some people actually believed avex when they said it was a mini album...
Fat chance.

It definietly was the album announcement.
And I honestly didn't expect it to pass 50k before. But I'm glad it did.

[TeamAyu2004]

i know I did... they never let me down before. why 15 years into her career.
I kinda thought about it when the 2nd mini was released and then they announced a full album... I was so pissed, but I decided to wait for the meltdown till I actually knew. lol.

[brener]

hoping for 10 weeks on charts.
