Checked that too, and couldn't search the old lists (or maybe my search skill is untrained and based on my wisdom.. or something).
So...How are Sales of 4E Product?

And some are hoping to show that 4e is the greatest edition of D&D ever because it has sold more books than any other edition.
This is not just one sided, it is just one front in the edition war.

Well, if I had the choice between playing 3E or poking holes in 4E, the latter sounds still far more enjoyable.

Do you still call it a war when it is one-sided ambushes and attacks? I thought that was terrorism..

I thought it was called skirmishing.

As long as nobody is killed or hurt, I would call it annoying. Besides: War on Terror. 'nuff said. Well, actually already too much - no need to bring politics into this... Real terror on message boards its using WTD - Weapons of Time Destruction, like posting tvtrope links.

Maybe if it were one sided, but both sides here seem perfectly willing to take part.

Okay, we now have a way of comparing, at least as much as we will have until Bill stops by and decides to give us the figures
3.5 PHB - 2 weeks on list, peak at 57
3.5 DMG - 1 week on list, peak at 92
3.5 MM - 1 week on list, peak at 112
3.5 Gift Set - does not figure on it (was there even one? I can't recall)
3.5 Magic Item book was there for one week, peaking at 147
3.5 PHB2, 1 week, peak at 128
3.0 PHB - 3 weeks on list, peak at 45
3.0 DMG - 2 weeks on list, peak at 58
3.0 MM - 2 weeks on list, peak at 58
Gift set doesn't figure on it, if there was one
4e PHB - 4 weeks on list, peak at 47
4e DMG - 1 week on list, peak at 128
4e MM - 1 week on list, peak at 147
4e Gift Set - 2 weeks on list, peak at 57
Link to some - search for rest
Also note that AV was there one week, peaking at 109, FRPG was there 1 week, peaking at 129
That's all I could find, draw your own conclusions.

Looks like 3.0 was the best for the available data.

So according to this 4E doesn't look as if it sold that much more than 3E....
But again, those charts only compare how much books were sold compared to the other books at that time. You still can't really compare those ranks, just make a guess based on them.
