That's something you have to decide. IMO usually they aren't my favorite versions of the LPs when I compare them but most of them sound pretty good and are somewhat a bargain when trying to find nm originals. I do both, used to only buy high quality of reissues of my favorite LPs, but these days I do less of that and actually prefer new high quality reissues of albums that I've never owned before.
My favorite reissues are 2 LP 45 rpm editions of single disk originals but those are usually $60 each. I've also found 2LP 33 rpm reissues of single disk 33 rpm originals that sound great too (usually these are records that were like 25 minutes per side in the original release.
It's very frustrating trying to buy nm early pressings or originals through the mail. It's like the market is full of dumpster divers who seem to think record grading is a subjective thing. Most of them seem to think adjusting the price is a fair solution if you don't agree with the grade they put on the disk. It's hard to find good sellers.
Original label reissues can be had for $20 or so and some of them sound great, same thing for many analog era pressings especially if nm is not required. So it's really only worth it if someone doesn't mind spending the money.
