24 vinyl pressings of Time Is Time / I Go For You are listed here, from 16 countries, released between 1980 and 1981.
The earliest pressings are from 1980, in UK, US, Australia, Austria and more. One of them is RSO RSO 73.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use RSO 73, RS 1059, RS 1059 DJ, K-8163) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
It depends on which pressing you have and on the condition of the record and its sleeve. Early pressings from the album's home country in near mint condition are usually worth the most; common later reissues are worth far less. Scan your copy with VinylLens to see its value for every grade.
