I think the ship vs sold gap will be really high, tbh. The stock in some European stores is insane, it seems (and now in USA as well).

@seece: We just talked about this in another thread. Ethomaz remembered the exact numbers 

They didn't lie. They tell you what they ship at that moment in time which is usually weeks after the Q has ended, so no they're not going to be the same.

I love how you "thought this all along" based on what? exactly what information do you have to come to the conclusion they've sold 2.8m but not 3m? You know you sound ridiculous right?

Have you really already forgotten? We were talking about this in a thread literally less than 2 weeks ago. If I cared enough, I would find it. And yes, they were blatant lies because they quoted a number (as of a date) that was higher than even the shipments.

 

I mean that I thought MS were making their numbers look better than they are. This was based on what I said above, personal stories and apparent stock levels. Also, the timing of the 1m+ announcement was beyond weird, you have to admit that.

It is obvious that 1 million announcement was fudge. No way they knew that quick when they launched in 13 territories.
