how is ive pulling good preorder numbers despite their cbars

i cant find the thread anymore but i was reading some thread talking about how ive's cbars arent going to subsidize sales in order to prevent bulkbuying. however:

and if i rmbr right, love dive recorded 76k in ktownu and even with what their cbar is doing, theyve already reached 70% of what they got last time without teasers or anything

how does have 70% of Love Dive sales = subsidize sales?

Love Dive attract many fans so it is normal to have more.

usually cbars contribute a lot to preorders and sales (and did so during love dive era) but since ive's cbars decided to subsidize sales and are trying to prevent bulkbuying, i didnt expect impressive numbers but theyre still doing really well so im asking whether its just how much they've grown internationally thats supporting them or what other reasons there could be

their fanbase grew a LOT w ld + fans are buying albums to compete sales w aespa and nj. competition always estimulate sales

i could have sworn dives were bragging that cbars won’t do individual member group orders but look like that was a lie. Not really good numbers anymore compared to NJ. at least NJ and aespa fans didnt make a show about stopping solo sales that lead to group solo stans and stopping bulk buying to save the earth only for them to go back and do exactly that.

Literally nowhere did dives say anything about not doing individual group orders.

If you had been less salty and more paying attention you would know what was said was that the Cbars wasn't going to subsidize their orders (which would have made albums cheaper for bulk buying purposes). In that regard, they have very much kept their word. Of course, that won't eliminate bulk buying in its entirety but at least Cbars won't be enablers.

The "individual" part which I think you got confused about was that all the bars came together to make that announcement as a single entity. But that was just for the announcement of what they all agreed to do in regards to preventing bulk buying and had nothing to do with joining all their member bar orders together.

they never said they werent doing individual group member orders. i think you need to go read that forum post on what was the cbar doing about subsidizing like 10x so you can comprehend better

i have $100 dollars to buy ive album which cost $100. ill only pay $50 because cbar will cover the other half. so i have $50 left. so ill use that $50 to buy another album which cbar again will cover the other half. now i bought two albums when i only could have bought 1, thank you cbar.

now its diff.

cbar isnt covering the diff.
