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):
Pressed at Orlake Records, Dagenham.
Two pressing variations exist:
- one with a deep groove in the label
- one with a flat label
From official No-Man site ():
A compilation album assembled by Steven Wilson in 1986 to promote various musical projects, including his own. The album had a short pressing run and was soon deleted. Other contributing artists included Abel Ganz, Twice Bitten and Comedy of Errors.
From A Toyshop Window was the first No-Man track to be made available (while the band was still called No Man Is An Island). It's a solo instrumental piece by Steven Wilson, preceding Tim Bowness' involvement and consisting of a strange mixture of home-made '80s synth-pop and progressive rock.
