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):
50th Anniversary Half-Speed Mastering limited edition reissue.
Comes with a Dark Green 'Obi' strip, a plain Yellow Inner sleeve and an (A5-size) 'Half-speed Mastering' Certificate.
Originally released in December 1971.
This edition was cut by Miles Showell at half speed using high resolution transfers of the original master tapes at Abbey Road Studios, 23rd July 2021. This half-speed master closely references the 2018 remaster by Alex Wharton and Steve Orchard. It was made as a vinyl specific transfer in high resolution and without digital peak limiting for the best possible reproduction.
