How do you know that?

Also, I'm sure that Tusk should be certified at least 3xPlatinum by now.

Because I was a fan and around in real time. Mirage was certified 2xPlatinum by the end of 1982 .I agree about Tusk ..it's relevance today is leagues ahead of Mirage's so I'm sure it has sold more since then.

Isn't there a website that has all these certifications listed?

The RIAA..but I think it may be up to the artists or their management to push for certifications sometimes .Rumours sat at 19 million for years before it got the 20 million certification and it is one of the best selling of all catalog albums.

I can't find it on Amazon UK. I only see the deluxe vinyl version. Am I doing something wrong?

Thank you It's weird how the US Amazon page lists it as 3CD/1LP/1DVD but the UK Amazon pages lists it as Vinyl. But I realized after you posted that not that many songs can fit on a vinyl record.

It's really odd that it's so much cheaper there. Thanks for the help, and thanks to everyone for the heads up. I don't think I would have thought to check that.

No, it's £38 British pounds. So after the conversion and shipping, it will be about $55 US dollars. That is of course if your bankcard does not charge for the exchange in addition.

A word of caution to those in the U.S. ordering from Amazon U.K.

I've had more than my share of trouble with my orders from them.
Take this quite literally, my last package arrived wet! As in soaking
wet.

I'm pretty sure I didn't order any water with my vinyl.

I ordered. Even with the exchange rate, postage, and credit card foreign currency charge, it's a lot cheaper. I'll let you all know what shape it arrives in.
