21 vinyl pressings of Dead End Nights are listed here, from 1 country.
The earliest pressings are from 2002, in US. One of them is Dead By 23 DB23-03.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use DB23-03) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 106978 SECOND ROUND? and 106979 3 STRIKES AND YOUR OUT. 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.
