period sis Posted March 13 Posted March 13 Even if it was a WW number, the shipping and taxes fees has definitely turned a lot of international buyers away. I'd bet whatever numbers of sales it's gotten so far is majorly US.

Yes, but I just guesstimated 75k, I'm not sure exactly how much it is considering I'm not sure what the total availability was and I definitely haven't looked at all of the products inventory, but some of the boxes only have like 1k left (per shirt size) as some still have around 6-7k left, and I'm thinking they may have started at 10k each, but I could be way wrong.

Lady Claire Posted March 14 Posted March 14 Can't wait Going to pre-order a vinyl and a CD next week. I hope the packaging is amazing and full of photos like Renaissance was 1

The disparity between the amounts left, plus the fact they didn't sell out that quickly last time, with less inventory and the hype of it being her comeback makes me think they weren't all 50k. Happy to be proven wrong though because that would be HUGE. 1
lapisnour Posted March 14 Posted March 14 Ok so I’m from Europe (eu), and therefore don’t know how many people have also experienced it but why was the Renaissance vinyl (standard cover) literally 67€ when I bought it in 2022 and Cowboy Carter now is only 37€, do yall think it’s just gonna be a regular vinyl and a “deluxe” is coming since there’s also a bonus track on the cds?

Because she now added a EU Shop while beforehand there only existed a US shop

There wasn't an EU shop for the renaissance drop so the prices where much higher if you bought from europe.. i don't think she's gonna do any other vinyls, 4 versions is already a lot for her and she barely does represses. The bonus track will probably remain exclusive as an incentive to buy the CD/box sets. I do think another vinyl is coming but it will be the standard one that will be available in every other retailer too 1
lapisnour Posted March 14 Posted March 14 okay, that all makes sense. but even outside of her shop the price for the vinyl is abysmal. i just checked on amazon and multiple vinyl shops and its being sold for 57 euros which is still considerably more than the regular vinyl prices? so maybe the price is fixed at 60 because of its rich content?

Cbreezy Posted March 14 Posted March 14 For those who have been tracking things, what are the lowest and highest estimates of total US sales at the moment? As Chart Hive, a huge reason I wanted the preorders early (peak TH'E launch window) was to benefit from the hype and almost make the album's first-week less stressful for those of us who care about her numbers. So, as realistic Hive, I know I'll be satisfied with 120k-150k ish in presales heading into March 29th, as streaming and post-release sales will do the rest (theoretically) to bring her in line with her usual 300k debuts. 1

Asparagus Spears Posted March 14 Posted March 14 2 weeks to go. I love when Beyonce releases an album. She takes us all on a journey. She almost gets it right each and every single time when it comes to the placement of tracks on the record 3
