ALL RECORDS LISTED BELOW. Will not break up lot. ULTRA RARE – Complete NEW SEALED MINT Collection of impossible-to-find The Mars Volta / Omar Rodriguez-Lopez LP’s. These are new and sealed, so never been played – notes below regarding cover condition – READ BELOW and SEE PICS! This is my personal collection that I have acquired over the last 18 years. They have been stored upright and in sleeves as I obtained them in a temperature-controlled room out of sunlight. While you might be able to find some of these records, finding new, un-played copies of the original TMV GSL pressing (none of the MOV junk) and ALL Omar Solo LP’s in one place is nearly impossible, if not impossible. Most of these are now in collectors’ hands and opened for listening. Even including a handful of other side projects: ATDI, Bosnian Rainbows, Crystal Fairy and the full GSL 7 Collection of 12 (not all Omar-related). Releases from 2002 until 2020. I never thought I would be passing this collection along, but new hobbies and expenses are catching up to me, so hoping that they find their way into another collectors’ prized possessions as they have been with me. Please keep your low-ball offers to yourself. PLEASE SEE ALL PICS AND READ DETAILS BELOW. These are all sealed (aside from the 7 GSL collection + S/T Picture Disc), so all assumed mint. I visually checked for warps and then felt for bowing pops and none could be found. Any defect you find is unfortunate, but is a possibility and your responsibility. Detailed list of all corner bumps / splits below (very minimal). It is possible I missed something, but unlikely. They have been carefully stored and reviewed while writing this list. NO water damage or warps or dirt or sun-fading. Can provide more pictures as needed. LISTING OF RECORDS + CONDITION BELOW PICS. Coke Bottle Clear w/ Bone Splatter Variant.
