which edition of poulenc 4-hands sonata?

I wanted to get a copy of the Poulenc Sonata for Piano, 4 hands. But there's two different editions on sheetmusicplus.com, and I'm not sure which to go for.

Now, the second one is much more expensive than the first. I wonder why this is. Is the second a better version, or a more accurate version? Is the first "dumbed down," that is, simplified. (It does say "revised version")
But I don't want to spend $12 extra if they're the same.
Anyone know ?

The revision was done by the composer, so i wouldn't worry too much about it... I have the expensive version, and it's fine. However, f you look at the cheap one, it says "reprinted from chester" (The firm who published the expensive one), which probably means that they're the same.
