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):
"‘Magna Invocatio – A Gnostic Mass For Choir And Orchestra Inspired By The Sublime Music Of Killing Joke’ is the first release in Jaz Coleman’s MASTERSCORE Series. Over the years, Coleman – now celebrating 40 years as Killing Joke’s iconic front-man – has been driven by twin musical loves: experimental rock and classical music. Clearly, Killing Joke has played a pivotal role in both alternative music and culture, but what Coleman feels is sometimes passed over is the “panoramic beauty” underpinning many of their songs, an element that fitting orchestration might underline. With ‘Magna Invocatio…’, he spotlights these elements in grand style… Recorded with Russia’s oldest orchestra, the St Petersburg Philharmonic, this stirring body of work taps into the more melodic, uplifting aspects of the KJ musical canon, using Coleman’s journey with this hugely influential UK outfit as the vehicle for a Gnostic mass (a ritualised celebration of the mysteries of existence). What we have here is a true passion project – “13 digestible epics”, five with full chorus, ordered to be experienced in a single sitting, and conceived to appeal to those not generally engaged with orchestral music. States Coleman, musician, composer, producer, author, lecturer, traveller, philosopher, actor & Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres, “The end goal was always to bring magic into the listener’s life in some meaningful way”. ‘Magna Invocatio’, ‘The Great Invocation’, clearly does that."
