Born to Die's number doesn't seem right. I know it's split over years, but it's eligible for 3x platinum.

It's sold 1.55m~ to date.

2012: 479,000

2013: 444,000

2014: 272,000

2015: 147,000

2016: 78,000

2017: 72,000

2018: 40,000~

2019: 20,000~

Crazy to think during the Hey day of record sales (mid-late 90’s) album’s went diamond in a couple months-one year. Nowadays it’s near impossible.

Does Old Bloke happen to have 1992? That was the first full year in the US with Soundscan data.
