   What came back

   Claude Code (Claude Opus 5.5) sent back, word for word:

   I used Firecrawl Alexandria's Discogs provider to pull the 1977 vinyl versions of Rumours and live marketplace data for 20 of them. Short version: most original pressings are cheap, and the valuable ones are rare promos and test pressings.

   One limit: Alexandria returns the current lowest asking price and listing count, not sales history. I tried the Discogs release pages for low, median and high sold prices, but they don't show those to scrapers. So the figures below are what it costs to buy one today, not what copies have sold for. The provider doesn't say what currency the prices are in, though it's probably USD.

   Prices for the common originals (1977, BSK 3010 / K56344)

   Rumours sold in huge numbers. The most common US pressing alone is in about 20,000 Discogs collections, so the cheapest copies cost very little.

   Pressing	Discogs ID	Cheapest listed	For sale	Have / Want
   US, Winchester plant, Burbank labels	7943027	$3.00	67	4.3k / 1.5k
   UK K56344, smooth sleeve	503889	$6.67	64	17.3k / 2.7k
   Mexico (Spanish title)	3289963	$6.55	3	1.2k / 1.3k
   US Jacksonville, textured sleeve (most owned)	8626822	$11.47	23	20.6k / 6.3k
   Netherlands WB 56344	613159	$11.74	12	4.3k / 1.5k
   Germany WB 56 344	374881	$12.48	37	15.0k / 4.5k
   US (0798 on spine)	11455276	$14.99	32	4.1k / 1.2k
   UK CBS Aston Clinton, "Copyright Control" labels	9886055	$16.16	12	1.5k / 1.3k
   UK mock-leather textured sleeve	7867033	$17.87	7	1.0k / 1.4k
   US Record Club edition	3087794	$18.00	11	2.1k / 1.5k
   US MCA Gloversville	5600075	$18.99	28	3.1k / 1.7k
   Japan P-10233W (with lyric inserts)	2054104	$21.15	37	1.9k / 1.8k
   Australia, first pressing on Burbank labels	1637234	$22.38	8	4.3k / 1.5k
   UK K 56344, Burbank labels, made in West Germany	5741925	$22.47	15	3.2k / 1.7k
   US MCA, variant labels	7894403	$24.00	21	6.2k / 2.4k

   The cheapest copy of each standard pressing is about $3–25. Clean, complete copies with the original fold-out insert will sell for more than these floor prices.

   The valuable pressings

   The ones worth the most are those with few owners and a long wantlist:

   1. US test pressing with label copy sheet (16676718): 13 owners, 770 wants, none for sale. It's probably the most valuable original, but with no listings and no sales data, Discogs gives no price.
   2. Japan promo "見本盤" (sample copy) (20820217): 41 owners, 638 wants. Cheapest listing $152.78 (6 for sale), the highest asking price I found.
   3. Nigeria K56344 (18226060): 32 owners, 587 wants. Cheapest listing $46.07 (2 for sale).
   4. Rhodesia RRC 2224, on Reprise (15659995): 24 owners, 712 wants. Cheapest listing $25 (3 for sale), which looks cheap for how few exist.
   5. US Goldisc mispress with Side A on both sides (30184889): 1,225 owners, none for sale right now.

   Among standard copies, the US MCA pressings and the UK and Australian Burbank-label copies have the highest price floors.

   What I didn't cover

   • There are 195 versions from 1977. I checked prices for the 20 most owned or most notable from the first 100 and didn't look at the other 95.
   • These are asking prices only. To see what copies actually sold for, open the release's Statistics panel on discogs.com while logged in.
   • Firecrawl's rate limit held things up partway through, but every request eventually went through.
