You don't seem to understand how supply chains work. MS can't just overship constantly. They sell to retailers and can only ship what these retailers buy from them, they can make incentives etc for retailers to purchase extra but they can't just ship extra. No company can know for certain how many units are sold to consumers, financial reports are legal documents where companies are legally required to be accurate and hence all companies say what they provably know which is how many they sold to retailers.

Youre talking to a guy who once told me MS should have up to the second sales data WW for their products. So yeah.. of course some here believe if MS shows up at a businesses doorstep with 2,000 Xbox consoles, the business has to buy them all no matter how long it will take to sell them.

Oh, you just had to come in with that BS. Clearly you still haven't learned how to read. I've corrected you time and again on this, but you just can't let it go, in order to undermine my comments.
When MS, back in 2013, was saying the XBOnes were sold out at most major retailers, you could easily go to Walmart.com, Gamestop.com, Target.com, Amazon.com, etc. (or just go an availability site like nowinstock.net, for aggregated results) and see that XBOnes were clearly in stock at the time. So, no, they weren't sold out. If you're foolish enough to believe that that is me saying "they should have minute by minute updates on stock" then you're a worse spin doctor than Greenberg. If MS says "we're sold out" and the major retailers say "there's XBOnes available", that's not me saying MS should have up to the second sales data. That's me saying that they're making false statements, based on very publicly accessible information. Not to mention, there were several reports/articles of stockpiles of XBOnes available at many retailers across the US. And pages worth of posts on /r/XboxOne of people saying "XB1s are available here, here, and here". And, while anectdotal, several pics popping up on the internet of people showing stockpiles of XBOnes at their local stores, showing up daily. All of this being easily obtainable information, all the while MS saying "we're sold out"....and you turned that into "you think they should have minute to minute tracking" =/
Quit your BS. Because, technically, bringing up what people have said in the past into a current thread is grounds for a warning/ban. So not only could I report you for that, but you'd get a warning/ban based on your own lack of reading comprehension causing you to distort my post history. Now, you don't want that, do you?
edit: here's an example of one of my posts in that thread: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=5868882. I referred to the anectdotal pictures of massive stockpiles people were posting, and also the fact that Amazon, in particular, had stock at the time of my posting. And how you could see the same thing at other sites if you go to zoolerts and wiilerts to see that XBOnes were readily available at the time. This is the kind of stuff that you said was me saying "they should have up to date tracking on every unit sold". See how silly you look?
