I think 3 more days of tracking this week. And no it's not worth $50. It's no different to other albums You can price match at Target with the amazon price down to $25 or something like that. Nobody should be paying the 50 though Edited September 20, 2022 by whirly
Mel. Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 I cooled off a bit, but I’m still so confused i keep asking myself how?! they're #1 on iTunes, they’re #1 on Amazon theyre getting the streams…like, what’s it giving it has to be an issue with the shipping. I refuse. There is no way you’re gonna tell me BLACKPINK is only selling 80-85k. I just can’t accept that, the sales better change drastically
TwoPonytails Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 What did y’all expect from an 8 songs album that costs $50 plus non existent promo
MonsterNavy Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 I know miss @Mel. will gladly take all the lashings from all the sm sheep, jypigs and hyberats for us blonks on the ktrl thread
samybertoni Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 They became too expensive to stan I fear

There taking advantage of fans because they know we’ll pay the coin, but I hope a lesson has been learned here this is the ONLY Kpop album released all year that was priced over $50. It’s ridiculous and for only 8 damn songs YG really played in Blinks faces

Nobody should be paying the 50 though Some Blinks have been trying to price match at Target and the employees told them nope! and lowkey they need to lose their jobs are be reprimanded because there’s a rule that they have to price match, but they’re not doing it theres also the fact that Blinks have had to literally ask employees where the album is because it’s not on the shelves, so they have to go in the back and get them a copy, like what? Why are they not on the shelves where they’re supposed to be? We shouldn’t have to ask them to do their job and stock shelves.

You can't shake things up too much over there. They're softer than on other platforms

sadnight Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 And if blackpink get that #1 the antis will say that yg bought the albums so there is no way to win now after that disastrous prediction YG is the most useless and greedy company in the world, they are embarrassing
Mel. Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 Tbh, I don’t even think it’s gonna happen, I don’t see them gaining 10k and even if they do, for the 10k they gain Bad Bunny will just gain another 5-10k. We lost, there’s always next time…maybe BP won’t have the 1st kpop girl group #1 after all. YG is to blame for all of it
Mel. Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 What would’ve been sickening is if they did a fan sign while they were in the US, has any kpop groups ever done that? they were even at Target, that would’ve been like the perfect lil promo gig and in order to attend the fansign you had to have bought the album, that would’ve been a nice boost. They could’ve done a fansign on Saturday and Sunday they've been in the US since Friday and did NOTHING until Kimmel tonight and back to Korea they go…it’s embarrassing
Mel. Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 On a positive note they have 2 songs simultaneously slaying Korea right now
selsfetish Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 this thread is killing me yeah its def bc of those expensive albums its like this, apparently is more expensive bc its eco-friendly? anyways at least YG moved and added digital albums...you can buy the album for $5 digitally on their website 4x for each version, we can still get the #1 the 10k gap isnt that big https://shop.blackpinkmusic.com/collections/music/products/born-pink-signed-digital-album-explicit https://shop.blackpinkmusic.com/collections/aeg-d2c-exclusive/products/digital-booklet-with-exclusive-images-ver-1 https://shop.blackpinkmusic.com/collections/aeg-d2c-exclusive/products/digital-booklet-with-exclusive-images-ver-2
MardinBeksloy Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 They will definitely get the #1, but im still pissed at how YG managed this comeback like you only have ONE group that is actually relevant
fattysel Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 (edited) naur, it’s true…. I’m NOT paying $50 for a cd… I went to target today and i didn’t buy… of course I felt bad but $50???? no thanks idk maybe I’ll buy it in a year or so Edited September 20, 2022 by fattysel

Purchasing only won’t count, you have to download
Mel. Posted September 20, 2022 Posted September 20, 2022 I’m streaming the album simultaneously on Spotify, Apple Music and Amazon music, using my phone, tablet and pc…it’s giving auditory overload, but I’m doing my part lmaooo
