Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Oceanic are there?

37 vinyl pressings of Oceanic are listed here, from 4 countries, released between 2002 and 2023.

When was Oceanic first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 2002, in US, Sweden. One of them is Escape Artist Records EA-19.0, released September 17, 2002.

How do I tell if my copy of Oceanic is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use EA-19.0, Trustno-018, Trustno 18) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, EA-19.0. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Oceanic on vinyl worth?

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.
