Questions

How many vinyl pressings of The Elder Scrolls V are there?

When was The Elder Scrolls V first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 2017, in USA & Canada. One of them is Spacelab9 SL9-2045-1-4, released November 24, 2017.

How do I tell if my copy of The Elder Scrolls V is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SL9-2045-1-4) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 156295E1/A and 156295E2/A. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is The Elder Scrolls V on vinyl worth?
