17 vinyl pressings of Deja Vu / All The Time are listed here, from 9 countries, released between 1979 and 1980.
The earliest pressings are from 1979, in US, Barbados, Canada, Japan and more. One of them is Arista AS 0459, released October 1979.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use AS 0459, AS0459, 6RS-44, ATA 459) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, AS 0459-SA and AS 0459-SB. 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.
