Not like I can return it but just a little disappointed especially since it the only thing I bought.

Lately, I've been falling in and out of love with Monticello, but MOPV has restored my affection completely. When it comes to the grand opening of MOPV, I was a day late and a dollar short. One might think: WHY THEY NO DO MORE MARKETING? WHY THEY NO HAVE SOFT OPENING? Because they're too flippin' cool, that's why. Seriously they're the only vinyl shop in EP so they don't really have to market since it sells itself. Sure we have All That Music and a bunch of vintage shops that carry records (don't get me started on Whoopee Bowls ridiculously extensive collection that can be rather difficult to navigate), but this is El Paso's first real deal, all-we-carry-is-vinyl vinyl store. MOPV is tucked away behind Hillside Doughnuts (or is it donuts) in two repurposed shipping containers stacked on top of each other in a somewhat artistically scattered way that actually creates optimal use for both floors. Yes, it's small... but this let's me know that these are business owners with a vision running MOPV, not two kids with a pipe dream and no plan. Half of MOPV is composed of windows, the other half is white walls smartly decorated with the occasional painting. It's a mix of vintage and contemporary without being pretentious, much like the crowd it attracts. The records are separated only by artist name which I absolutely love. It's a small selection obviously, but it got me looking at some different albums that I normally wouldn't stumble upon because I don't spend that much time sifting through that particular genre. And they don't discriminate against current albums. By the looks of it, the owners are on a quest to find albums in good condition for all fans of vinyl. I'm not entirely sure how often they add to their stock, but I'm almost positive that I could go in their week to week and find something new. The listening station! The listening station, man. So cool. A couch circa The 1972 Brady Bunch next to a record player with headphones. Sweet! And they do also have music playing for the store so I'm pretty sure you can make requests based on what's on hand. Not gonna lie, MOPV has been added to my Sunday Funday ritual!

And I know, judging by the name, you'd think it's all about aliens...but no, this place has a little bit of everything. Comic books, vinyl records, vintage lunchboxes, sweet Breaking Bad artwork, and neon sign. There's just a million different things in this store that I love and want to own. So many things that I want, but a few of the things that stood out on my first trip was the Captain Morgan statue (that thing was seriously bigger than me...check the pictures), the Walk/Don't Walk signs, a snowglobe with the original owner's picture in it (perfect gift for White Elephant...just saying), and the huge amount of comic books that were only $2. A5S is in this antique shopping warehouse that's filled with a bunch of different stores, so it may be an all day trip if you're like me. The outside really doesn't look like much, but A5S is huge. You're not human if you don't leave this place with a bag filled with cool stuff at an unbeatable price.
