Some albums were released in multiple versions (pressings). There is the first pressing, which can be very valuable to collectors. When that stock runs out, a new pressing is made, called a repress or re-issue. These are often slightly different, such as a different sleeve or heavier vinyl.
Sometimes older albums are remastered, improving the sound quality. A new pressing is made for this as well. Differences in artwork or small production errors can also make a specific version more attractive.
What makes the difference in price?
For records that are not new, the market value is determined by scarcity and the condition of both the record and the sleeve. Pricing is based on supply and demand, and whether a version is limited or numbered.
Which variant should I choose?
If it’s mainly about the music, a repress is a good choice. An original or numbered edition has a different kind of appeal.
Including tax.

Kontaktaudio posted a disclaimer on their website () for this release:
"ATTENTION:
To avoid later mournings, we want to inform you that picture “vinyl” is no audiophile format, it’s a collectible format.
Especially for music like Coil with it’s wide stereo spread, swirling high frequencies and deep dronning basses.
The more stereo and bass, the wider and deeper the grooves have to be, to provide all information to the needle.
But picture discs have only a very thin plastic-foil over the pictures, it’s no vinyl, just plastic, similar to pet bottles.
On picture “vinyl” can not be pressed so deep and wide grooves, that it would sound as well as a real vinyl.
That’s the same for ALL picture LPs, not only Coil.
General conclusion:
Of course our picture LP editions are enjoyable for listening too!
But to get the best sound quality, you should buy black or any coloured transparent vinyl, those sound best.
For your collection just buy whatever you think looks best."
