Questions

How many vinyl pressings of 2 are there?

When was 2 first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 2012, in US. One of them is Captured Tracks CT-164, released October 16, 2012.

How do I tell if my copy of 2 is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use CT-164) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, CT-164A Ⓤ BONATI MASTERING NYC and CT-164B Ⓤ BONATI MASTERING NYC. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is 2 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.
