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):
6-CD boxed set. Featuring early demos, their first three albums (including 1975’s classic Children Of Lir), every non-LP single and B-side from the 70s and 80s, vintage live recordings and more recent work with Donovan and others, Magic Carpet spans acid folk, psychedelia, rock and roll, rural rock and straight pop. The magnificent music is accompanied by a lavish booklet incorporating a detailed band history, a full discography, many rare photographs and an introduction from Brian O’ Reilly himself, making the set essential for all fans of melodic folk-rock and psychedelia.
