Chart Listings: Updated Album Sales Thread.

April 26, 2015 5:00 am 5 comments Views: 4
This thread is to keep track of nearly all albums that have recently updated sales by Soundscan. It’s annoying to have to search everywhere, to have to ask around, and sometimes not find up to date receipts on albums + you’re just curious on to how random albums have held up. To add any you need to post a real source reporting the Soundscan sales (@chartnews is allowed for obvious reasons).

Newer Albums (albums released under 1 year ago):

Guidelines for adding sales of newer albums:
• Sales must be from less than 3 months ago.
• If the last update has reached 3 months, and there’s no new updates, it’ll be removed.
• Don’t post sales from albums released under 1 month ago. There’s no need to post sales for brand new albums since they’re still easily findable, and likely updated every week.
• Pure sales please, I’ll see about a section for album equivalent sales later on once those become more given.

• If the album is 1-5 years old, sales should probably be from 6 months ago at the latest. If the album was released before this decade, then updated sales can be from up to 1 year ago.
• As with newer albums, once the update has passed the time allowed it’ll be removed.
• No estimates pls. Exact sales.

It’s small now, but I’ll be updating when thy wakes up. Feel free to chime in as much as you want, as long as it’s under the guidelines respectively. :o
