15 vinyl pressings of Primitive And Deadly are listed here, from 3 countries, released between 2014 and 2024.
The earliest pressings are from 2014, in US, Europe. One of them is Southern Lord lord193, released September 2, 2014.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use lord193, lord 193) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, PIRATES PRESS - LORD193 A 120597E1/A and PIRATES PRESS - LORD193 B 120597E2/B. 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.
