both of these sites are very reliable. So, im guessing all the consoles were sold in the regions not really monitored like Russia, England, etc.

Ioi already has this information on the site: it's shipped, not sold. And while Russia is a possibility, how can you think that England is "less monitored?" It's one of the most developed nations in the world :p
