About this record

The 2022 Blonded reissue of Blonde carries catalogue number BLNDD002 and spans four sides pressed at both Precision Record Pressing and GZ Media, with matrix codes 10-95703 and 10-95704 stamped in the dead wax. This is the second official vinyl version—six years after the 2016 original—and demand remains steep: 15342 collectors want it against 35082 who own one, yet only 51 copies are listed for sale across the market.

What drives its value

Condition drives the entire market here. A Mint copy commands 244.38 USD, while a Near Mint drops to 218.65 USD; the gap widens sharply at VG+ (167.20 USD) and VG (115.76 USD), reflecting how quickly wear erodes value on this title.

The lowest asking price sits at 68.46 USD, suggesting heavily played or damaged stock. The 2022 reissue trades at a premium over the 2016 original because Frank Ocean has not reissued Blonde frequently—the release notes confirm only four identical runs were offered (December 2023, November 2024, and April 2026 orders), making each pressing window finite.

Community ratings of 4.91 across 3591 votes underscore consistent collector interest, but scarcity of high-grade copies keeps VG+ and Mint prices elevated.

How to appraise this pressing

Confirm this pressing by the Blonded label and catalogue number BLNDD002. The four-sided LP carries distinct matrix runouts: side A reads 10-95703 / BLNDD002-A 244489E1/B, side B reads 10-95703 / BLNDD002-B 244489E2/B, side C reads 10-95703 / BLNDD002-C 244489E3/D, and side D reads 10-95704 / BLNDD002-D 244489E4/C.

Pressing plants vary—some copies came from Precision Record Pressing, others from GZ Media—so check the runout to determine which plant pressed your copy. The gatefold includes a 12 by 36 inch lyrics foldout and a 12 by 24 inch poster.

Grade by examining the vinyl surface under light: Mint copies show no visible wear, Near Mint show only light dust, VG+ show light surface marks that do not affect playback, and VG copies show moderate scuffing. The title spelling "Blonde" (not "Blond" as on the 2016 original) confirms this is the reissue.

Frequently asked

What is this pressing worth in VG+ condition?

According to the price guide, a VG+ copy is valued at 167.20 USD. This reflects the record in light-to-moderate play condition with minimal surface noise. Actual selling prices may vary based on seller reputation and local market demand.

How much more is a Mint copy than a VG copy?

A Mint copy is priced at 244.38 USD in the guide, while a VG copy is valued at 115.76 USD. The difference illustrates how sensitive this title is to condition—even light play reduces value significantly.

Which pressing plant made my copy?

Check the matrix runout in the dead wax on each side. Sides A and B carry the 10-95703 matrix prefix, while side D carries 10-95704. Some copies were pressed at Precision Record Pressing, others at GZ Media. The runout alone does not always distinguish the plant, so cross-reference with collector databases if the plant name is not printed on the label.

Is this the original 2016 Blonde pressing?

No. This is the 2022 reissue released on the Blonded label with catalogue number BLNDD002. The original 2016 pressing was released on the Boys Don't Cry label and is titled "Blond" (without the final 'e'). The 2022 version includes updated packaging with a gatefold, lyrics foldout, and poster.

Why are there only 51 copies for sale if 35082 people own one?

Most owners hold their copies rather than sell them—the want-to-have ratio of 15342 to 35082 shows strong collector attachment. Limited reissue runs (only four ordering windows: December 2023, November 2024, and April 2026) mean supply remains constrained, so copies rarely reach the secondary market in bulk.
