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.

_________________
Most probably a CBS, Haarlem pressing (the cooperation of EMI and CBS in cutting/pressing releases for Ariola Benelux B.V. is evident for 1978/1979 in many examples). Fonts in the centre label layout, label size, centre hole immersion and the typical stiff matte textured sleeve paper indicate a CBS, Haarlem product either. However, the Haarlem galvanization stamp which is necessary for secure identification is missing.
