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):
This is an early U.S. issue in a textured sleeve, with no distinguishable pressing plant identifiers in its deadwax.
Gatefold sleeve is rough card with the "ostrich leather" texture.
Issued with custom inner sleeve and fold-out lyrics poster insert, both also on rough paper stock.
Inside gatefold is smooth pasteover stock.
Reprise labels are solid tan with STEREO indications at bottom, and a single groove-like pressing ring of 69mm (2 11/16th") diameter. This ring alone is not enough to differentiate between the various plants known to be in use by WB/Reprise at that time.
Both sides are mastered by Lee Hulko (aka LH) at Sterling Sound, and feature the STERLING stamp over a small '2', with initials 'LH' nearby. The main runout matrix numbers are etched in a round, careful hand with mock serifs.
Recorded at Quadrafonic Studios, Nashville; Barking Town Hall, London, and Broken Arrow Studio #2, Woodside, CA, Jan.-Sept. 1971, except B4 recorded live at Royce Hall, UCLA, Westwood, CA, Jan. 30, 1971

The matching Terre Haute issue is here: [r=1044287.
