    Well...if you'd like to compare this album to Maladjusted it's well on it's way to surpassing it....Maladjusted sold just 86,000 copies in the U.S. Not much else elsewhere....Vauxhall went gold in the U.S. 500,000 copies....Your Arsenal came close to Gold as it reached as high as 21 on the U.S. charts (where it stayed for a month or two) and Bon a Drag went gold in the U.S. too....I suspect Kill Uncle and Viva Hate came close also. Sorry but that's all the info I have.

    60,000 Silver
    100,000 Gold
    300,000 Platinum

    The record company has to register the sales - records may have sold a lot more but the company hasn't registered them with the BPI who award the discs.
    Maladjusted has never gone silver, but it may have crept up over time past 60,000.

    Ok...I stand corrected....but Vauxhall and Arsenal must be pretty damn close to gold....not to mention Kill Uncle.
