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 the original 1968 press on the "Unboxed Decca Record Label" in blue colour.
The vinyl is housed in the first issue in a gatefold cover.
This version has no "dot" in cat.# SKL 4955 on labels, unlike [r=2165840.
This version has the J/T mark below the year of release at 6' o clock on the label. The Mirage Music mark is below the BIEM NCB GEMA marks at 9 o' clock at the label. All titles are centered and in individual lines.
Information in runouts is stamped, with "BB" and "1" in deadwax on side A, variant 2, as well as "1" and "1" in deadwax on side B, variant 2, being rotated by 90°. BB is stamped pretty shallow so that the horizontal line separating two bowls in both letters is not visible.
