I think Mazarin will be 5 times a platinum. It is a fantastic album, I have helped the sales as I have buyed albums for foreign friends (not enough for another platinum yet!).

Hey! I got my copy here ... I guess every Roxette fan in the world has his/her copy. That helps a lot!

It would be intresting to know how much has Mazarin sold outside of Sweden.

mm has the quantity for reaching platinum changed over the years? Somewhere I read that Eva Dahlgren sold 500.000 of her En blekt blondins hjärta and it said 5x platinum, so platinum = 100.000 ????
...lemme look for the link... brb

here it is:

“En blekt blondins hjärta” från 1991 är nog ändå den skiva av alla som Eva borde vara mest stolt över. Skivan har sålts i mer än 500.000 exemplar (5x platinum) i Sverige och därmed är Eva Dahlgren en av de svenska kvinnliga artister som sålt flest plattor i Sverige genom tiderna.”

Judith, Finland changed gold and platinum limits couple of years ago. If I remember right, also Sweden changed at same time.

they changed from 80000 to 60000 in 2001... so maries äntligen sold 3 old platinum 3*80000, which is as much as 4 platinum now....

but then they must have changed it since 1991 till 2001 from 100.000 to 80.000 and now to 60.000.. how tricky + convenient this is ;)
