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):
Limited edition version with bonus 12" of "Mama Told Me Not To Come" and "Sucker" remixed by Martyn Young. Track D is the version of "Mama Told Me Not To Come (Go Back)" found on the US editions of the 12" and CD single with a longer fade out, during which "Part 1" of /master/15131-Philip-Glass-Music-In-Twelve-Parts-Parts-1-2Philip Glass - Music In Twelve Parts - Parts 1 & 2 is sampled. Because of the need to re-record the samples used on the US CD/cassette, this version differs from "Sucker M.F." and both versions of the song are unique to this release.
The album was Direct Metal Mastered.
Includes heavyweight glossy printed inner sleeve for the album, heavyweight generic black matte sleeve for the 12", and a heavyweight card insert with lyrics and production notes.
The lyric insert is glossy on one side only.
Recorded and mixed at Jesters, The Stone Room, September Sound, Mark's flat.
Tracks are numbered sequentially across sides A and B.
