Adjective

best-selling

1. (marketing) Highly popular with consumers purchasing goods within a specific class.

• Frequently used to imply high quality of the goods. Because of the value of such a designation, marketers often invent a class with narrow characteristics in order to describe a product as the best-selling in its class, even though other products with subtle differences may achieve far greater sales.
