How many did C81 actually sell. The stylus article quoting the rough trade compiler; Christopher Rose says 15,000. Simon Reynolds in Rip It up and Start Again says 30K. any more for any more ? Jem 17:24, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi, great little article: and I am glad that C81 is being credited as more pivotal than C86. Unfortunately the sales figures I could not accurately say; probably less than both figures. I would err on the side of Mr Rose - as 30,000 divided by 2 vouchers does make 15,000 → friedfish 17:40, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
The reference cited after the sentence that gives a sales figure says "over 15,000", and that is what the text should say; otherwise the reference should be changed. Neither C81 nor C86 should be credited by the text as being pivotal, unless this opinion can be referenced and attributed to a notable source. I do not understand what point you are trying to make by dividing 30,000 into two. -Ashley Pomeroy 18:09, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
