True, but the fact that Amazon is dealing with heavy traffic, stocks are selling out, and the albums are #1 and #3 on iTunes within just 13 hours of release is reassuring enough.
Anyhow, around when will official predictions be out?
Well we can calculate Born this way sales by comparing first day sales when they are released to Taylor swifts first day sales. Does anyone know how many copies Taylor swift sold her first day?

... and It sold only 194,000 in first week :/
Katy Perry and Lady GaGa are two different artists. And you can't base first week sales only on digital downloads.
It would be cheaper for you to buy it on Amazon and just get the deluxe tracks from iTunes
Honey I don't use Amazon. All I can promise is if they don't fix this error on iTunes by moonlight I might go insane and kill my neighbor. I still Haven't listened to any of the tracks besides the singles / promo singles. #ONLYABADBITCH
