What a lot of people do not understand is that retail agreements can be complicated. First is that all stock a big chain like gamestop gets doesn't have to be paid by the retailer. GameStop can have an agreement to purchase a certain amount of stock but Sony can ship more if they want. If GameStop bought a lot of stock and do not sell it, they can send it back to the manufacture for a refund. This is why shipped numbers do not mean that Sony or even MS sold that much to retailer since overshipped product can be sent back.
