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):
Issued with a poster of Robert Hazard shrink-wrapped over a black sleeve; the sleeve is printed with song lyrics.
When bought second-hand, the poster is often missing or inserted inside the sleeve, leading to confusion regarding identification of this release.
The "Hw" in the matrix refers to Howie Weinberg's initials beneath the Masterdisk stamp in the run outs.
