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):
Three versions of the green sleeved issue exist:
Version 1 (this one) - (Dark) British racing green, bronze type and border.
Version 2 ([r=23212376) - (Dark) British racing green, bronze type and border. MVS re-issue of version 1.
Version 3 ([r=7125430) - (Lighter) Forest green, gold type and border.
There were two different editions of the record released using this sleeve:
1) Original version of "Ceremony" (without Gillian Gilbert) (this one). Side A groove etching: "Watching Love Grow - Forever"
2) Re-recorded version of "Ceremony" (with Gillian Gilbert) ([r=24986659). Side A groove etching: "This Is Why Events Unnerve Me".
This version of the record was released in the new cream & blue sleeve, but there were green sleeves left over from the original pressing which were used rather than being discarded.
The cover and runoffs of the record states the catalogue number as FAC 33 (the same as the 7"), but the label state FAC 33/12, denoting the 12" release.
Although the centre labels have the date 22/1/81 as part of the artwork, this release came out in March.
