Given that the manga was concluding, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the people that bought the Naruto vol. 67 were doing it because they wanted to get caught up on and prepping for the finale.

This shows better how manga sells since we can get an idea how other comics sell, instead of how manga sell compared to each other.

It'd be nice if these type of reports could give us the approx. number of copies that the books sold (For example, rounding off 5432 copies to 5400).

If you want BookScan's numbers, wait till around mid or late February for Brian Tibbs at Comic Book Resources to produce his annual BookScan top 750 list.

Hmm, the boilersplate paragraph at the end saying what stores do and don't contribute to BookScan seems to be a bit out of date. According to last year's fact sheet, Amazon is in the list of data providers.
