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.

Track A1; Kilume Dance of the fun loving Akamba people, is sedately energetic and traditionally restricted to elders- of both sexes-of this large Kenya ethnic group.
Track A2; Typical of border districts of Uganda and the eastern Congo is this enchanting beat, played by two leisurely drummers as evening falls.
Track A3; Spirit-exorcism, a rhythm of Kenya's Teita people, in a rare, secret ceremony called 'Upepo".
Track A4; Gay Giriama of the Kenya's coastlands play their drums under the palms when the hot African sun makes work a burden.

Track B2; Chuku drummers from Embu district Kenya, perform precise and measured dance movements, carrying their tall drums between their legs.
