I just scored me a 12" copy of Run 2 in pretty good condition for 10 pounds.
How much is this record worth now, anyways?

I'd say that 10 pounds is pretty darn good. I know people who've paid more. Not sure exactly how much it's worth though...hard to say really.

I think that for the copy I have I paid around $21 bucks...and it was minty new!
I got a copy when it was released, so I paid around £2.50 for it, but a couple of years ago, I got my hands on another mint copy for £6 at the Notting Hill Music Exchange - I was amazed. I'd say you paid around the right price for it.
Bear in mind that as the years go by, it will increase in value - I'm sure that New Order are one of those bands whose releases will always hold their worth...
Just checked Ebay and found this:
Run 2 - $26 current bid - NOT mint condition!
Click above if you want to check it out.

Damn, I feel like a complete moron. I never saw the record before until I bumped into it in late '92 or early '93. Bought it for about $8 (in a indie record store in San Mateo, CA), played it a few times and then ignored it. I have no idea even where I put the bloody thing. It just never did anything for me, i thought the redone version of Run was pretty weak and MTO was nothing special except for the finale of the tune. Never realized it was actually a bit of a collecter's item until I had misplaced the darn thing.
If you didn't throw it out, Stephen, I'm sure you'll find it again! 
Just saw - the winning bid for it on Ebay was $41 !

wow! that´s expensive, isn´t it? hell yes, that's expensive. i just bought a new VCR for that much (granted it was the cheapest one).
The problem is that between 1996 and 1998 I moved eleven times, due to transfering Universites (and where I lived there repeatedly), and living all over the place, and later my folks moving from California to Nevada. So I ended up packing up all my crap and moving four times in '96, three times in '97, and another four times in '98. Some of them were small moves, from the first floor to the third floor of a building, sometimes they were moderate, across campus, and sometimes they were big moves, to San Mateo, to Berkeley, to San Jose, to Minden, Nevada etc. But all that combined to insure that things were lost along the way because of how often I had to drag all my junk together and move it all over the place.
Anyway hopefully I still have it, but who knows what shape it's in, and where it actually is.
i just,and i mean just got a copy of the run 2 12 " last week,it was a trade and was absolutely mint,mint sleeve,record & inners!
i keep seeing them on ebay from between £10-£25.
