So with Friday AND Saturdays sales yet to come I can see this easily doing 90,000 in its 1st week UK sales - Saturday should have good sales with everybody off work and doing their Christmas shopping...
being number 1 in Ireland means very little, its a very small market, as is their economy. A number in Germany, France or the UK now that would be something to talk about!
Even if it would be just Luxemburg with its 100 buyers, it still would be great to have No 1 there.

I would love to see this compilation do well, even though its just a cash in, however, I dont think it will do so well. The reason being is simple, why should people buy it, when they can get the other albums, the Platinum collection is much better, or even the original greatest hits. I still think 500k worldwide tops.
Well number 4 in the album charts and with 25,000 sales in the UK already, I can't really agree with your prediction Nucleardolphin....
Only another 65,000 sales this in the UK for my estimation to come true....
