The NZ orange vinyl version of AKOM was listed in a "Record Collector" article a few years back as worth 150 pounds (UK) approx. $450 NZ at the time. It would have to be in mint condition.
I have 2 of these myself but you would be very hard-pressed to get that money from a NZ buyer as they are reasonably easy to get a hold of - only the overseas collectors would pay the full price I imagine.

Note that QPH.com is quite out of date concerning prices, though US$ 200 is a nice reference. At least isn't worth a tenner :)
It is a REAL shame that QPH.com will be down. I know it hadn't been updated for a while but it was certainly good to know it was there as a very comprehensive reference to what is out there and its approximated price.
I know I felt very proud when, shortly after I shared the original version of Let Me Live in CD quality, the text in QPH.com was changed to say that that version of LML was reportedly available in a Mexican CD as opposed to only the US promo cassette, as it was believed until then.
I know there are other similar pages but this page had something about it that made it better, at least for me. The functionality to search for a specific record and see a list of all the known versions and their prices with two clicks was simply great.
Which other Queen pages can you recommend that have accurate prices for all Queen records? Serious question, I want to know.
I, too, must agree with Wiley. A shame that QPH is shutting down. Even it's outdatedness did not supercede it's usefulness. It would be nice (but I know... a lot of work) if Queenpedia took over it's database. That's slowly becoming my most visited Queen site... no offence to the powers that be here.
I'd like to add values at Queenpedia. Now that QPH is gone, it might be something worth doing. I know I've referenced the "gimme the price" section a lot. It would be a good bit of work to keep up with the going rate on stuff, though.

Looks like someone just volunteered herself for the job ;)
