When you post news articles like this, it would be great if there was an actual source....

It's not on the RIAA site.

Yeah - they still record it as 1 million sales, but are prone to be out of date Tongue

billboard.com has it listed as #66

http://www.billboard.com/bb/charts/bb200.jsp?start=51

The Billboard 200TM
Top 1-50 / 51-100 Positions / Issue Date: July 2, 2005

This week: 66 ? Last week: 85 ? Weeks on Chart: 65 ?? Artist/Title:?Guns N' Roses, Greatest Hits ?*triangle* 2

*triangle* RIAA certification for shipment of 1 million units (Platinum).
Numeral following Platinum or Diamond symbol indicates album's multi-million level.


Gypsy note: ?the little triangle didn't copy & paste ?Embarrassed
Does the band still get their royalties since they didn't approve this albums release? Huh?

Slash & Duff have certainly sold a few albums in the past 2 years!

GNR might be the only band that has a regular album, AFD, that's better than their GH's. that's odd.

I still laugh at all the people who moaned and cried about the GH's album. That album has turned more people onto GNR in the last couple years then anything else has in a decade.  hihi

The GH's album KICKS ASS! The tracklist isnt fat either , it's AWESOME!

AFD is close to 17m in the USA but the riaa still shows 15m. Gnr, axl or the label have to pay the riaa to certify the albums.

I know - Michael Jackson's 'Bad' album hasn't been certified since 1994.....

FIRST: RIAA is always "late" concerning the certifications...
For exemple RIAA said GN'R sold 63 million albums worldwide, I think this figure hasn't been updated since...1995! Now in 2005, The real sales are about 85/86 million records?worldwide (with the GH).

For the GH I confirm it's double platinium in the US, and 6 million copies worldwide. Not bad at all for an album filled with 10 years old + of material, a small promotion, with no new material, no videoclips, no singles, no tour etc... It gives lots of hopes for "Chinese Democracy" when it's released. peace

I also own it, but only because I'm a die-hard collector. Otherwise I wouldn't have bought it.
