24 vinyl pressings of You Never Done It Like That are listed here, from 13 countries, released between 1978 and 1980.
The earliest pressings are from 1978, in US, UK, Australia, Brazil and more. One of them is A&M Records 2063-S.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 2063-S, AMS 7384, K-7191, 31C 006 61753) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, p 12493 P-4 AZ and p 12494 AZ ~~ P3. 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.
