Contest: Predict the album sales of <i>Chinese Democracy</i>

· by

What effect will a 10-year layoff, Dr. Pepper publicity and a Best Buy promotion have on the sales of Guns N' Roses' Chinese Democracy.

 

It's a monster week of releases this week and we're holding album sales contests for four of the biggest albums (Day & Age, 808s & Heartbreak, Theater of the Mind, Chinese Democracy) hitting the store shelves.

 

The prize is a $20 Amazon gift certificate and bragging rights for the week. Please note that only registered userswill be in the running.

 

Contest:
  • Predict in the comments where Guns N' Roses' new album, Chinese Democracy, will chart.
  • Also predict how many copies of Chinese Democracywill be sold during its first week.
  • Predictions after Sunday (November 30, 2008 will be disqualified). 

Prize:
  • $20 gift certificate to Amazon.com

Additional Notes:
*Check out the Week in Preview feature to see what else was released.
**Whoever correctly guesses where GNR chart and is closest to actual sales figures from Soundscan wins. No Price Is Right rule in effect (i.e. you can still win if your guess is over the actual sales figures.)
***This contest is open to everyone, including Prefix staffers.

****If you are not registered on the site, your entry will be disqualified.

chinese democracy will se 725,567 copies on the first week

Believe it or not.....in this day and age where Kanye rules all around and even I forgot about GNR....I'm gonna say 825,000 copies in the first week. Is that counting Sunday to Sunday or Tuesday to Sunday. Because I heard it actually dropped on the 23rd of November (Sunday) as opposed to the normal Tuesday release for all new music. Oh well.

Willie Boy

Ayo....thats my comment up there...can I be credited with that one? I wrote it then registered thinking it would attach ot to my account...if not I still say 825,000 copies then. lol

deserves it too!
kids..it's not 1987 or 1991

this is real art & such talented musicians
and people who contributed. I'm shocked.
I thought he'll flop.
I can't stop listening to this CD.
btw..DJ's in L.A are already playing the vinyl in clubs!

Fuk yeah!!!! this is an album only
true music lovers can appreciate.
This is Axl's finest crescendo moment.
Congrats to the higly educated, talented
folks involved in this long adventure.

one thing Axl..is that your hair?
It must hurt to sleep in, yes? (soory to ask personal q)
But, you do look sexy. Men get better after 40.

#2. 425,000 sold

Because of it's weird release date, thus not being able to be indcluded on a week until that of dec 1st I say 3rd with 250,000 units sold, or there abouts.

Mandela

oh, and the album is decent. Even if it had come out in 1996, when it's sound was relevant, though, the album still would have been lesser than Sound Garden's Down on the Upside.

Mandela

probably about 450-460 k. 2nd place to Kanye, because people don't appreciate talent.

Ryan

i just listened to the new kanye album and it is a complete waste of the cd's they were printed on..And I liked the previous cd's. The GNR CD I can't seem to stop playing though...much better than anticpated 650,000 first week sales

eric

i think it will be $901,000
