Best Buy is also out of stock, I pre-ordered sunday sep 28th the vinyl....on back order till oct 13......was not happy, but may be due to strong sales??? or they didn't print many vinyl???

My friend manages an independent record store in North Carolina. He didn't get the copies he ordered because they were out of stock, so he has two customers waiting for orders they placed a long time ago. It seems demand has exceeded expectations. Doesn't that have to be a good sign?

The vinyl is out of stock at Amazon. It is currently #6 in vinyl, but at one time I think it was #1. I think most people probably ordered from Warner.

I ordered from Warners and got a notification that the vinyl is backordered. So it appears to have sold out at Warners as well.

It all depends on what the numbers are...How many copies were pressed versus how many have been sold...

Update:

Pre-orders peak positions:
==================
- US Amazon albums chart - #12 (pre-orders)
- UK Amazon albums chart - #37 (pre-orders)
- US iTunes albums chart - #25 (day pre-order was made available)

Peak positions when released:
====================
- New Zealand iTunes albums chart - #9
- Australian iTunes albums chart - #9

I really don't understand what's going on with the UK iTunes chart as the album is well within the Amazon albums chart but isn't even within the top 150 of the iTunes Rock Albums chart. I find that really difficult to believe. Some immediate promotion is needed.

[James89]

'24 Karat Gold' is now officially within the top 10 of the US Amazon albums chart.

But vinyl was out on the 30th. I still don't know if this means we will see it on the charts (relatively low) this week.

Knowing Billboard I would expect a combined sales figure the week after next.
