Exactly.

Slippery - 28m
New Jersey - 18m
Keep The Faith - 12m
Cross Road - 20m
These Days - 11m
Crush -11m

Those 6 alone have sold 100m to date.

Leppard on the other hand, had 2 massive albums and the rest just don't add up:

On Through The Night - 1m
High n' Dry - No certification in any country.
Pyromania - 15m
Hysteria - 20m
Adrenalize - 6m (being generous)
Retro Active - 2m (being generous)
Vault - 6m
Slang - 2m (being EXTREMELY generous)
Euphoria - 1m
X - No certification in any country.
Yeah - See above.
Rock of Ages - 2m
Songs from the Sparkle Lounge - No certification in any country.

So, from what we know for sure, they have sold 55m. Between the rest without certification, I can buy another 10m. But 45m?
