I`ll try again. When you`re given a new machine it is registered as a sale in a shop, because the shop needs to register whetever you pay 300 or 0 for the machine. Thus the shop needs to buy more machine for selling. This gives vgchartz a fail statistics of the real sales. If it`s a repair on the other hand, it will not be registered as a new sale.
Ok? You understand? All of you?

Ok? You understand? All of you?

What? If your 360 breaks, you return it to MS, not the store. You get a new machine/repaired machine from MS, not retailers.

So VGChartz and the 360 total is not inflated. Now do YOU understand since you are in the minority of people who still don't get these blatantly obvious facts? Ok-thx-bye.
