First Week Sales

If you are apart of a lot of message boards like myself, you see this alot:

"I went to go get Monica the first day, and it was completely sold out."
or

"I went to go get Janet at Best Buy and like five other people had it."

It kills me just because an album is sold out at one chain doesn't mean the album is going to be #1. Retail chains order a certain number of copies per album. Once that shipment runs out, they'll order more. Now there have been a few cases where sold out albums have been #1. It's not always the case though. These so called sold out albums chart and only move like 100K in their first week. That's not saying much.
