Hi all It's looking very promising for Noel's High Flying Birds album, according to early sales figures from the Official Charts Company. Noel has taken an early lead this morning over X Factor winner, Matt Cardle, to be on course for a debut Number 1 album this Sunday. See here for a first glimpse at the sales so far this week: www.theofficialcharts.com/chart-news/noel-gallagher-1-matt-cardle-0/Cheers Lauren (theofficialcharts.com)

The official chart staff surely have better things to be doing than posting on a forum

Hey deasy, you seem to know these things, the download that's included with the CD/DVD & Vinyl package, that's not counted as a unit is it?

Also, as far as I know, if you buy 2 or more copies of the album at the same time it only counts as 1 purchase too. I'm open for correction from Lauren the chart lady above though ;D

Hi both
A bundle such as the CD/DVD offering you mentioned will count as one sale. However if somebody buys two copies of the album these will count as two sales. It is when there are unusually large discrepancies between the number of copies bought and the number of unique customers that there would ever be any concern over chart eligibility of the transaction/s.
Hope this helps
