Posted October 1, 200618 yr wondering whats the rules over free stickers in an album pack are they allowed? or will the album's sales be excluded from the chart? (thinking about this album http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=19066
October 1, 200618 yr the sales should be excluded from the chart if the stickers are classed as a gift. Perhaps the OCC will look upon them as being part of the packaging? I can't see an album by an established artist being excluded for something like a bunch of free stickers.
October 4, 200618 yr it's official - the record isn't eligible for the chart. The rule on free gifts has been there for years, the labels know the rules as they themselves are the ones who suggested it, via the Chart supervisory Committee (the OCC only enforce the rules of the CSC).
October 4, 200618 yr gosh! then his 7" release of Cellphone's Dead next week will also fall foul of these rules. :ph34r:
