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):
Additional information:
Track B1 was not included on the original version of this album. It was added to the European reissue and its presence is advertised by a round blue sticker on the front cover.
In addition, some copies included a promotional one-sided color A4 insert for the "Madonna Live - The Virgin Tour" that had just been released on VHS and Beta.
Another feature that distinguishes this reissue from the original version is that the generic Sire typeface is used on the label, whereas the previous versions used the custom "madonna" typeface used.
Issued with back cover printed upside down and custom inner sleeve with lyrics and credits.
Some copies came with a sticker on back cover: Club Sonderauflage which featured an additional Cat# 32325 3, check detailed photos.
Runout information:
Runout inscriptions contain stamped and etched parts. Stamped are "MASTERDISK", and main matrix number string on both sides, including crossed-out part "9̶2̶5̶1̶5̶7̶-̶1̶ ̶A̶" , i.e. "R/S Alsdorf 925181-1 A/R/S Alsdorf 925181-1 B". The rest of inscriptions are etched. Some of the etched inscriptions can be etched very sloppy and lightly onto the surface, and are therefore open for interpretation, e.g. variant 32, side A/B: "93"/"<╷D╷>". Furthermore, last "2" of runout A-side, variant 31, looks like a mirrored number "5".
Similar versions:
Release 12637927: seems identical, only that it was tagged as European version
Release 12504617: very similar, but the barcode's text form as well as font differ, i.e. "0 75992 51811"
