If those numbers were linear, we would be expecting about 180K. But they're not, so I'm expecting about 120K. CROSSES FINGERS.
Still, it's interesting/weird watching Carrie ahead of Taylor at this point.

Yikes. Another 20% of reporting added and Carrie's total hasn't really moved, but her rank sure has.

I wonder what sales source that update came from? Her total didn't change AT ALL! Unfortunately, we all knew that she would get pushed down in the rankings. It is hard to compete with a new release from a rapper, TS Christmas sales and a Christmas CD from what seems to have become a very popular group. It seems odd, though, that there would be a sales source where the GH was completely unavailable - would there?

The more you look at HDD building charts, the more you'll realise that they mean absolutely nothing. There's no way you can explain the percentages and sales factored in. In some cases, the updates actually deducted sales from some albums. We know very clearly where The Lord sold her albums (Billboard has broken them down) and none of the updates matched with any of the numbers.

There were also cases like Beyoncé's album only available in one retailer but her sales didn't pop out all at once.

None of any of the updates before 100% is an indication of anything. It remains entirely possible that she could have sold only 3 copies or 3 million copies.
