Best LP records find?

:: Back in 2013 I visited a building site, downtown, where an architect asked me to meet him, but since he was late, I took a walk around the block and fond a garage sale store: among old sofas, paintings, tables and chairs there were 2 plastic boxes, with 40-60 Lps, as I started to dig it, I found close to 15-20 LPs from the beloved mid 80's era named 'Rock En Tu Idioma' as this was a 1987-1988 LPs series of bands from Argentina, Spain, Chile, Mexico, etc. all of them look as if they were taken care of with love...the owner, a nice elder man wanted 7-10 USD back then for each one...It took me 3 visits to pick the best of them. Many of those are for sale on eBay or Discogs close to 50-60 USD, and I did sell some of them to buy more stuff there... Every once in a while I visit the store, but luck has vanished and the owner no longer has LPs for sale: "maybe later, thanks for coming!" he says with a smile.

About Rush and Feedback Album

Don't understand the 'Feedback' bash, since I got it, I did dig deeper into the Yardbirds catalogue and then I linked the era to the Spencer Davies G, Traffic, etc. 

Sound + Vision Box by David Bowie

::: I held in my hands, back in the day, a new and sealed S+V Box...and as far as I recall, it was expensive as hell (an import CD box set in late 80s? in Mexico? figure yourself) but just like that, without being open it was a total beauty...!

U2 unreleased wants

U2 - PoP   Box Set Check this amazing video uploaded by U2 Argentina: It proves that the album was evolving from basic rock tracks to a mixed monster of colorful samples and remixes...plenty of material could be reworked by Flood and Howie B or remixed either by Lillywhite, Eno, Lanois (á la 'Naked) ...those arrangements they did for the PopMart Tour could be added as studio versions, a handful of remixes only available on vinyl releases, a single box where we could find the Remixes versions of the singles they released that era, the collaborations with Sinéad O'Connor, Willie Nelson, a BD or DVD with the promo tour performances in K-Mart, MTv US and MTVEurope, interviews and footage made over the recording sessions, etc. U2 PoP 20th anniversary  was dissmised by the gargantuan 30 years of  Joshua Tree Tour
