About this record
Optimal Media GmbH pressed this 2017 European reissue across two LPs with matrix codes stamped in the dead wax—B0017746-01-LP01-A through LP02-D—marking it as distinct from the original 1992 Sub Pop release. Remastered from Bernie Grundman's transfer of the analog master tape, the 15-track compilation carries catalogue number 00602537204830 and ships in a gatefold sleeve with die-cut and poly-lined inner sleeves.
The price spread between Mint and VG copies—54.61 USD down to 25.87 USD—reflects how heavily condition drives value on this repress.
What drives its value
This 2017 European pressing commands a steep condition gradient: a Mint copy trades at 54.61 USD, while NM drops to 48.87 USD, VG+ to 37.37 USD, and VG to 25.87 USD. The lowest asking price across 141 active listings sits at 25 USD, suggesting many sellers price below the VG guide estimate.
Community demand is substantial—1094 collectors want it against 5554 who own one—but the want-to-have ratio of roughly 1 to 5 indicates this reissue is readily available. As a remaster pressed by Optimal Media GmbH rather than the original Sub Pop pressing, it occupies a middle tier: collectors pursuing the 1992 first pressing will pay more, while those seeking an affordable, remastered copy accept the 2017 repress.
The 45 RPM designation and remaster status attract both casual listeners and graders sensitive to audio quality.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by the barcode 00602537204830 and the four distinct matrix runouts stamped in the dead wax: Side A reads B0017746-01-LP01-A CB 3722279 BG62520-01 A1; Side B, B0017746-01-LP01-B CB BG62520-01 B1 3722279; Side C, B0017746-01-LP02-C CB BG62520-02 C1 3722281; Side D, B0017746-01-LP02-D CB BG62520-02 D1 3722281 v=. The pressing plant Optimal Media GmbH is not credited on the sleeve but derives from the matrix.
The gatefold includes a die-cut and poly-lined plain paper inner sleeves; some copies bear a Made in Germany sticker on shrinkwrap. Grade by examining the vinyl surface under light for hairline scratches and the sleeve for creasing or seam splits.
A Mint copy shows no signs of play; VG+ allows light surface marks that do not affect playback; VG copies show visible wear but remain fully playable.

Frequently asked
Is this the same as the 1992 original Sub Pop pressing?
No. This is a 2017 reissue pressed by Optimal Media GmbH in Europe, remastered by Bernie Grundman from the original analog master tape. The matrix codes—B0017746-01-LP01-A through LP02-D—identify it as the remaster. The original 1992 Sub Pop pressing carries different matrix stamps and commands higher prices among collectors seeking the first pressing.
What is a VG+ copy worth?
According to the price guide, a VG+ copy is estimated at 37.37 USD. This reflects a record with light surface marks visible under direct light but no audible impact during playback. The estimate is current as of the guide's last update; actual market prices vary based on seller and buyer negotiation.
Why is there such a big price gap between Mint and VG?
A Mint copy is priced at 54.61 USD, while a VG copy sits at 25.87 USD—a substantial spread driven by collector demand for unplayed or near-unplayed stock. Reissues in pristine condition command premiums because most copies in circulation show at least light play wear. Buyers willing to accept VG condition can acquire the remaster at roughly half the Mint price.
Does this pressing include the MP3 download voucher?
Some copies include a voucher to download a 320kbps MP3 AAC version of the album, but not all. The release notes indicate this is variable across pressings. Confirm with the seller whether the voucher is present before purchase if this feature matters to you.
How many copies are currently for sale?
141 copies are listed for sale across the market, with the lowest asking price at 25 USD. This high inventory suggests the reissue remains accessible, though prices vary widely depending on condition and seller. The 5554 collectors who own one indicate this pressing is not rare.
