22 vinyl pressings of As The Rush Comes are listed here, from 8 countries, released between 2003 and 2018.
The earliest pressings are from 2003, in Netherlands, UK, Canada, Spain. One of them is Armind armd1001, released September 7, 2003.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use armd1001, GAND 001, G+D 001, 12TIVDJX203) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 08 52546 20 1A1 ARMD 1001 -PS- and 08 52546 20 1B1 ARMD 1001. 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.
