PLEASE READ THIS: Most questions are answered below, and most problems can be avoided by reading the following information.

I prefer payment by PAYPAL. It gets me my money quickly and I ship your LP really quickly in return. Please make your payment to: abts@indy.rr.com. Please do NOT send emails to that address.

To contact me by email please use the ask seller a question feature. The total amount due is the amount of your winning bid PLUS the shipping/handling costs below:

SHIPPING & HANDLING:

*First LP is $4 Media Mail IN THE US

*or $6 for priority mail IN THE US

*or $7 air mail to Canada

*or $12 airmail to Europe and $13 to Japan/Australia/New Zeland.

*OR $6 for international surface mail.

MULTIPLE ITEMS: It’s great if you find multiple auctions of mine to bid on. You will save $$ on shipping and I can ship you by whatever method you want BUT I need you to keep me posted on how long you want to wait before settling up for everything. Once the TEN DAY period is passed you may receive a late payment warning, please don’t panic, just remind me that there are auctions you are waiting for to close.

• In the US add .50 for each additional LP MEDIA POST

• or $1 for each additional LP PRIORITY POST

• International Air add $3 for the 2nd LP and $1 for the 3rd

• International Surface add $1 for the 2nd and $1 for the 3rd

• More than three LPs total please contact me for post costs.

Insurance is your option if you live in the US. $1.30 up to $50 and $2.50 up to $100. Because of the US Post Office policies, insuring international packages is prohibitively expensive – it raises the cost of the postage by 200% AND requires a full value customs declaration.

INTERNATIONAL BUYERS BE CAREFUL. IF YOU PAY $6 FOR SHIPPING YOUR LP WILL BE SENT VIA SURFACE MAIL.

IMPORTANT: PLEASE specify WHAT kind of shipping you are paying for and whether you have paid for insurance when you make your payment. If I get your Paypal or MO for “$13.75” and NO OTHER INFORMATION, I will assume you have paid for the title plus regular media mail as I do not have the time to look up each transaction, check the bid amount and figure out just what you’re paying for. Thanks.

NOTE: This is a VINYL LP. It might be possible to get it into your CD player but it won’t be good for the LP or the CD player and whatever noises it may make will be entirely unexpected (and later issued as a box set on the kranky label under the namegods’s anise saliva or Peace Leopard Frequency or something).

GRADING: Unless a record is truly flawless or brand new but unsealed MINT MINUS (M-) is the highest grade given. The scale I use is from M- EX VG++ VG+ VG VG- with VG+ represent the condition of most LPs that have been taken care of but played over the course of 10-20 years. VG- LPs are records that have significant surface scratches and noticeable noise but do not skip and are still enjoyable. Records in this condition will be listed only when they are copies of LPs that are rare and expensive in M- condition. All items are guaranteed and may be returned for the full amount of the winning bid if you are not satisfied with the described condition; if SEALED LPs are shipped SEALED there is no guarantee (I know what reseals look like and do not sell them as sealed LPs); after receiving payment I can open sealed records here and inspect them before shipping. Any defects, or problems and your payment will be refunded in full. Always give a seller an opportunity to correct any problems before leaving feedback.

In nearly 2,000 transactions I have only had one problem, and that was with a guy who was happy with the items, but decided to complain about the shipping charges a couple months after the fact!

Psychedelic? Most of what I sell falls into the realm of records collected by people who collect psychedelic music of the 60s and 70s. Most of the time these people search eBay listings under the word “psych” and that’s why I almost always put that word in my item descriptions, even when it might not be all that appropriate.

Descriptions are often borrowed from listings in one of the Borderline Books (“Fuzz, Acid & Flowers,” “Tapestry of Delights,” “Dreams, Fantasies & Nightmares,” etc.) or from the All Music Guide site. I feel these are more objective than descriptions written by the people who are trying to get you to buy the record.

PAYMENT: PAYPAL is preferred. Money Orders, IMO’s, checks, well concealed cash may be sent to PO Box 19553 Indianapolis IN 46219 and payable to: STAN DENSKI. Please include the name of the item you’re paying for and your address in with the payment. If you send me money with no explanation I will spend it and always think fondly of you, but I won’t actually send you anything. I also do not have the time to track you down.

You have TEN DAYS from the end of the auction for payment to be received. Please don’t bid on inexpensive LPs that you won’t actually want if you win them (come to think of it, please don’t bid on expensive records if you don’t intend to pay for those either).

Reichel was formerly the guitarist in Germany's most popular "Beat-Club" band, the Rattles. Mighty space-kraut-psych from 1974. Masters of echo-plex guitar and phased-out drums. Layers of phased, echoed guitar and ghostly mellotron choirs. Nine and ten-plus minute tracks dominate here on this rare and beautiful example of essential & vintage German psychedelic space rock. Beautiful original copy on Zebra (Stereo (2949 016) in M-/M- shape. A chance that won't return any time soon. SEE OUR OTHER AUCTIONS.
