Boy - PLAT - 13 - 14
October - PLAT - 6 - 6
War - 3xPLAT - 5 - 76
UABRS - 6xPLAT - 1 - 67
Joshua Tree - 14xPLAT - 1 - 111
Rattle & Hum - 8xPLAT - 1 - 65
Achtung Baby - 5xPLAT - 1 - 55

So 66.5xPlatinum in NZ minus TUF & WAIA. Shit that's impressive. That's about the same as what they've got in Canada...& i suspect some of those certs are pretty old & therefore those estimates conservative : JT only 10k (less than 1xP) above it's cert level? when did it get 14xP? Thanks for the figures though ChargedVT
