19 vinyl pressings of Slow are listed here, from 4 countries, released between 2003 and 2004.
The earliest pressings are from 2003, in UK. One of them is Parlophone 553 3626, released November 3, 2003.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 553 3626, 12MINDJ006, 12MINDJX006, 12MINDJY 006) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, B389592-01 A1 PEACHY TOWNHOUSE and B389592-01 B1. 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.
