Wat is ultrasone reiniging?
Vanaf nu passen we bij iedere plaat boven de €50,- een nieuwe service toe: we reinigen de plaat ultrasoon. Kort gezegd houdt het in dat een plaat gereinigd wordt door zeer hoogfrequente geluidsgolven in een speciaal platenbadje. Hierna komt de plaat er droog en ontdaan van alle stof weer stralend uit.
Uiteraard kan een kras of een scuff nooit ontdaan worden, maar ultrasoon brengt een vuile plaat weer tot leven en tot zijn maximale potentie: eenmaal uit bad, is de LP weer spic en span en dat verschil zul je horen! Voorheen onder stof of door vette vingers bedolven informatie komt weer goed tot z'n recht en zo klinkt alles weer een stuk meer helder.
Nog gesealde platen blijven uiteraard gewoon gesealed!
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.

General notes about this release (please note: our version may differ a little. see the comments above):
The "-213" in the cat# appears on the sleeve only.
The A-side label and sleeve say "Sex Mix" (8:20) but the A-side actually plays the U.S. Mix (7:25).
Additional text on A-side label: »From Dry To Moist«
Additional text on B-side label: »From Soft To Hard«
There are at least six editions of this German 12" single, all with the same sleeve, cat#, and list of tracks printed on them. Most are misprinted labels. They can be distinguished by what track their A-side actually plays and what matrix codes are etched in the run-out area near the labels:
1. [r208455 original 1983 edition, correctly labeled; its A-side actually plays the 8:20 Sex Mix edit, which is an echo-ey "dub" version bearing almost no resemblance to the hit single/LP version and is an edit of the original 16 minute "Sex Mix". "83" appears in the A-side etchings. Also with "84" in the matrix etchings for the 2nd edition.
2. [r15545055 1984 reissue, correctly labeled; its A-side actually plays the 8:20 Sex Mix edit, which is an echo-ey "dub" version bearing almost no resemblance to the hit single/LP version and is an edit of the original 16 minute "Sex Mix". "83" appears in the A-side etchings. B-side etching say "84"
3. [r1157964 1984 reissue, with incorrectly misprinted labels stating the 8.20 Sex Mix; its A-side actually plays the 7:25 U.S. Mix, which is an extended version that sounds like the hit single with a long instrumental intro. "84" appears in the A-side etchings.
4. [r1231831 1985 repress of the 1984 reissue, again with incorrectly misprinted labels stating the 8.20 Sex Mix; its A-side actually plays the 7:25 U.S. Mix. "85" appears in the A-side etchings.
5. [r1100192 The 1989 repress of the 1984 reissue, again with incorrectly misprinted labels stating the 8.20 Sex Mix; its A-side actually plays the 7:25 U.S. Mix. "89" appears in the A-side etchings, but without "II" at the end.
6. [r1157784 1990s A repress of the 1984 reissue, again with incorrectly misprinted labels stating the 8.20 Sex Mix; its A-side actually plays the 7:25 U.S. Mix. Unlike previous editions, it has dark blue labels containing light blue text and the PolyGram-era Island logo. "89" appears in the A-side etchings, with "II" appended.
The 7:25 U.S. Mix has been mistakenly called New York mix due to compilation CD's incorrectly calling it the New York Mix, in fact the 8.20 was un-officially known as the New York mix but its correct title is the "Sex Mix Edit", source from Inside The Pleasuredome. The U.S. Mix source comes from the "And Suddenly There Came A Bang", the official ZTT booklet.
