What separates the pressings

Oldest we track, 1989First released 1964; our table starts at 1989 (C5, UK). A copy older than 1989 predates everything here. Treat it as the find.
Collector variants1992 Japan: Promo, Reissue, Mono; 1994 US: Limited Edition, Reissue; 2014 US: Reissue, Mono, 200 gram. Scarce on purpose; collectors pay for that.
JapanPressed to high standards and collected separately; a copy with the original obi strip is a different record to collectors than one without.
Reissues, 1992+3 pressings. Easy to find, priced as listening copies.

How to identify your copy

  1. 1

    Match the catalog number. It is printed on the spine and the record label. Check it together with the country against the pressings table above: the same number can appear in more than one country.

  2. 2

    Read the runout. The code etched in the dead wax near the label names the exact pressing. On the 1989 UK pressing it reads “C5-535 A1 MPO "OOH AT LAST" A PORKY PRIME CUT THANKS BRIAN” on side one and “C5-535 B1 MPO NICE ONE PORK THANKS MIKE” on side two. Trust the etching over the jacket: covers get traded around, dead wax stays put.

  3. 3

    Grade the condition. A clean copy and a worn one of the same pressing sit several grades, and several multiples, apart. Grade record and sleeve separately; see our grading guide.

Questions

Which pressing of Shut Down Volume 2 is worth the most?

Original 1964 pressings lead; they predate everything in our table, and that scarcity is the point. Among tracked copies, the 1989 pressings come first. Scarcer variants (the 1992 “Promo, Reissue, Mono” and the 1994 “Limited Edition, Reissue”) can beat an ordinary early copy. After that it is all condition: the gap between near mint and VG is usually larger than the gap between pressings.

How do I tell which pressing I have?

Match the catalog number on the spine and label against the table above, check the country, then read the etched code in the runout groove. On the 1989 UK pressing the runout reads “C5-535 A1 MPO "OOH AT LAST" A PORKY PRIME CUT THANKS BRIAN”. A period jacket with a later disc inside is still a reissue.

How much is Shut Down Volume 2 worth today?

Sellers ask from $43 for the later pressings we have quotes on; for the 2014 APP 062M the median ask is $61 over 6 listings (eBay, Nov 6, 2026). The 1989 pressings have no quoted range right now. Sold prices usually close lower. Scan your copy in the app for the range on your exact pressing and condition.
