18 vinyl pressings of Tell Me Girl / Juliet are listed here, from 11 countries, released between 1964 and 1987.

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use BF 1322, 40202, BF-108, BF 326 637) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 326637 1F and 326637 2F. 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.
