When the book starts to appear on bestseller lists. A book can hit the bestseller list but still not exceed expectations. Or am I not understanding your question?

<pedant> Actually, you can also call a book a "bestseller" in the US if it sells 100,000 copies. If it makes a particular bestseller list, it gets a more specific adjective: "A Podunk Picayune Best-Seller!" </pedant>

And thank you for the lovely email (which I have not gotten around to replying to because I am a Big Loser that way). It made me feel all warm and fuzzy.
