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):
On front sticker : "A collection of 18 Burger Highlife, Electronic Afrobeat And Reggae tracks highlighting a time when the burgeoning Ghanaian diaspora across Europe and North America was utilising new music technology and recording techniques. A period of movement, emigration and innovation. Triple Vinyl LP Includes a large 8 page booklet with detailed liner notes, record scans and photos."
On back cover : "Eighteen Burger Highlife, Electronic Afrobeat And Reggae tracks highlighting a time when many Ghanaian musicians either recorded or released albums overseas. A period of movement, emigration and innovation. From Canada and the USA to Germany and the UK, Ghanaian music in the 1980s and early 90s was on the move. Drum machines, synthesizers and affordable recording techniques made autonomy from established record labels back home a reality."
