15 vinyl pressings of More More More are listed here, from 8 countries.
The earliest pressings are from 1984, in Netherlands, UK, US, Australia and more. One of them is London Records 820 009-7.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 820 009-7, LONX 44, LON 44, LON 44) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 820 009 7 1W 1 ℗ 1984 670 06 and 820 009 7 2W 1 ℗ 1984 670 06. 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.
