Yesterday before the trailer was release DVD sales were hovering around the 200 or 150 range on Amazon.com. Since the trailer has been released online, sales have jumped all the back up to 27. I think that is awesome.

Oh, and play Cantr II at www.cantr.net.

The info I got was from the individual product pages

The Amazon.com Firefly DVD set listing:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0000AQS0F/ref=pd_ts_d_2
3/002-1414800-4140011?v=glance&s=dvd&n=404276


About halfway down at the end of the product details section it lists it now as being #142 in DVD.

However it is listed as the 23rd top seller of DVDs. I have no idea what the difference is, and as far as I can tell only Amazon.com has a discepancy between the 'top seller' lists and 'best seller' lists.

Links for Amazon.ca:
http://www.amazon.ca/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0000AQS0F/qid=1114656135/sr=8-1
/ref=pd_ka_0/701-2643991-5863556


and Amazon.co.uk:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0001B3YTM/qid=1114656388/sr=
8-1/ref=pd_ka_0/202-9027537-4293460


(Although anyone thinking of ordering should use the links on the main page to support Haken and the site!)

Actually the number at the Firefly DVD Sets listing is wrong and has been stuck on 142 for a while. If you go to the top 25 sellers it is listed at 25 on Amazon.com (click on the 142 and it'll take you to that page) and here on Fireflyfans.net it is 24 which might be a little more accurate since Haken wrote a script that tracks the actual number I think and updates in real time.

Top Seller list would be the most accurate I think and that lists it at 23 currently.

Here's Haken's tracker:

http://www.fireflyfans.net/amazon.asp

And here's the latest info:

Date Avg Highest Lowest
4.27.2005 28 23 33
4.26.2005 94 34 154
4.25.2005 157 127 187

It goes back to the beginning of time if you're interested.
