About this record

Two matrix sets, four runouts, one pressing plant: EMI Electrola GmbH stamped the dead wax of this 1988 Kann Denn Schwachsinn Sünde Sein...? double LP, and the runouts 7911031-A1 1, 7911031-B1 1, 7911041-A1 2 and 7911041-B1 2 are the first thing to check. Demand is steady, with 2016 collectors listing a copy they own against 32 who want one.

Stamped and etched runouts are both described in the release notes, so the dead wax tells you a great deal before you grade the vinyl.

What drives its value

The price guide puts this pressing from 24.43 USD in Mint down to 11.57 USD in VG, with VG+ at 16.71 USD and NM at 21.86 USD, so condition is the main driver of value. Those figures are estimates as of the guide date.

On the market right now, 96 copies are listed for sale, with the lowest asking price at 1.00 USD, which shows how far a common copy can fall below the guide. The release is a gatefold pressing for Germany, Austria and Switzerland on EMI Columbia Austria and EMI Electrola, and its catalogue number 12C 2LP 198-7 91102 1 DMM makes it distinct from other runs.

Buyers should check the matrix and label variant before paying a premium, because the 2016 have and 32 want figures show a community that tracks each variant closely. The community rating of 3.83 from 124 votes indicates ordinary rather than exceptional standing.

How to appraise this pressing

Start by confirming the label. The rear sleeve should carry the EMI Electrola label and an embossed EMI stamp, and the sleeve is a gatefold.

Next, read the dead wax. On the standard run you should find 7911031-A1 1 and 7911031-B1 1 on side A and side B of the first disc, and 7911041-A1 2 and 7911041-B1 2 on the second disc, all stamped.

A variant 2 side A and B is etched with the mark 'II' instead of a stamp, so an etched runout is a sign to compare carefully. Check that the catalogue number 12C 2LP 198-7 91102 1 DMM appears on the spine or label and that a barcode is printed on the sleeve.

Confirm the 29 tracks across the four sides and the 4-page booklet. Grade the discs under light, looking for the grooves on each side, then match the copy to the price guide grades from P through M.

Frequently asked

What is a VG+ copy of this record worth?

The price guide lists a VG+ copy at 16.71 USD as of the guide date, which is an estimate rather than a guaranteed sale price.

What is a Mint copy worth?

The price guide lists a Mint copy at 24.43 USD as of the guide date, and Near Mint at 21.86 USD, both estimates.

How do I tell the standard pressing from variant 2?

Read the dead wax: the standard runouts are stamped 7911031-A1 1 and 7911041-A1 2, while variant 2 side A and side B carry an etched 'II' mark.

Why does the price of this record vary so much?

Across 96 copies for sale the lowest asking price is 1.00 USD, and the grade spread from 11.57 USD for VG to 24.43 USD for Mint explains most of the difference.

Is this record a first pressing or a reissue?

The release notes describe a 1988 pressing from EMI Electrola GmbH with label variants on EMI Columbia Austria and EMI Electrola, so check the matrix and catalogue number to confirm which run you hold.
