16 vinyl pressings of Do You Really (Want My Love) are listed here, from 10 countries.
The earliest pressings are from 1985, in UK, Australia, Barbados, Brazil and more. One of them is London Records LONX 60, released January 1985.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use LONX 60, LON 60, 882 039-7, 8820391) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, LONX 60 A // 1∇ 420 R 11 3 and LONX 60 B // 2 ∇ 420 R 11 3. 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.
