18 vinyl pressings of Ieya are listed here, from 3 countries, released between 1980 and 1982.
The earliest pressings are from 1980, in UK, Germany. One of them is Safari Records SAFE 28.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SAFE 28, SAFE L 28, 1C 006-63 908) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, SAFE 28 A3 EG. FOR BERNIE - BILBO · TA1PE and SAFE 28 B3 EG. TOO T's BERNIE !. 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.
