All sales reflect U.S. numbers only; worldwide sales are estimated at more than ninety million.
RIAA certifications are based on storewide shipments only. Some albums have yet to be re-certified again, thus making their current certification outdated.
Both Use Your Illusion albums are certified by the RIAA as 7x Platinum, with SoundScan sales of 5,355,985 and 5,435,447. This is because they were released, sold, and charted in 1991, 1992 and 1993. At that time, SoundScan only tracked 40-50% of actual sales. Therefore, both Use Your Illusion albums have sold near or over that 7 million shipment figure.

All but eight of these music videos can be seen on the DVD compilation Welcome to the Videos, a re-release of a 1998 VHS title of the same name. "It's So Easy" was never publicly released. An alternate version of "Sweet Child O' Mine" was edited consisting solely of the "grainy" black-and-white footage that is seen interspersed between the normal color shots of the original video. The version of the video "Don't Cry" with alternate lyrics has aired on television in the past, and is basically just a rough cut of the "Don't Cry" video with an alternate audio track. "Civil War" was taken from the band's 1992 Tokyo show and is available on the Use Your Illusion I DVD release. "Knockin' on Heaven's Door" was taken from the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert and could not be included for legal reasons. "You Could Be Mine" features footage from the movie Terminator 2: Judgment Day and could not be included for legal reasons. The two videos from Live Era: '87-'93 aren't included because they were produced in 1999.
