Vgchartz is doing OK ,they cant track very accurately european numbers and had some mistakes with january data in the US but for that we have the GFK reports (or Gamecharts ) that leak here and there to correct numbers (as the UK ones regarding the PS3 last week ) and in US numbers we now have the NPD data and corrections will be made I suppose .
As long as corrections are being made when new data arises everything is good .
As for shipped data ...they were at 10.5 at 31 dec .They changed their estimations to 9.5 in the fiscal year so some 13.05 LTD .Now they are in the middle of that period until end march so must have shipped 1.25 more .So approximately right now at 18 february they must have shipped 11.75 million .
And about sold to customers I dont know .I think once the NA data is adjustes and new data for last week enter it will have some 250K units more so about 10.2 million sold .I also have some concerns with german data ,the GFk figure wasnt very clear if it included the holidays week or not ,and in any case even if it was effectively for 31 dec the PS3 was overtracked by 70K not by the massive 140K it was brought down .I think a 10.3 million sold to customers right now is the correct place to stand .And thats very close to 10.5 I would say .
