As I'm too busy/stressed/tired etc. to write coherently about music these days, I'll defer to the mighty Acid Archives once again:

Westcoastish psych/hippie-rock, less elephantine than most later Mainstreams, with an unusual Strawberry Alarmclock influence a plus. Melodic and competent, fairly agreeable LP. Described as "strange" elsewhere but in actuality pretty straightforward, some odd spoken passages excepted. Most of the members were originally from Montreal, and were based in NY where they were known as the Funny Farm; the new band name was Mainstream's invention. (PL)
...........................................................................................................................................................................................

RARE RECORDS LISTED MOST EVERY WEEK: psych, prog, private press, folk, soul, reggae, metal, punk/wave, experimental, weirdness and more.

***** DO NOT SEND PAYMENT UNTIL I SEND YOU AN EBAY INVOICE *****

See my Ebay "me" page for more detailed info on grading, etc. ..........

Your bid constitutes acceptance of all this boring stuff below, so please read it carefully, thanks:

I accept PAYPAL ONLY. Payment is due within 3 days of winning. That's plenty of time in the age of PayPal, yes?

POSTAGE RATES: This is a ROUGH, honest estimation of postage charges, charged at cost, **including packing materials** as well as the actual shipping. I do not make a profit on shipping!

DOMESTIC U.S. SHIPPING:
Media Mail: $4.00
Priority Mail (faster): $9.50
$1.00 for each additional LP

CANADA / MEXICO:
$9.50 airmail
$3.00 for each additional LP

EUROPE / ASIA:
$13.50 First Class airmail
$24.00 priority airmail
$3.00 for each additional LP
Express airmail also available but more expensive. Inquire if interested.

Once I have mailed your package, I am not responsible for its safe arrival. That's what insurance is for. The postal service is responsible for insured packages only.

Despite what Ebay's shipping chart says, INSURANCE IS MANDATORY FOR ALL U.S. ORDERS.
REGISTRATION IS MANDATORY FOR ALL INTERNATIONAL ORDERS OVER $100 (and highly recommended for international orders under $100)

DOMESTIC (U.S. ONLY) INSURANCE RATES:
Fee . . . . . . . . . . Insurance Coverage
$1.70 ................ $0.01 to $50
$2.15 ................ $50.01 to $100
$2.60 ................ $100.01 to $200
$4.60 ................ $200.01 to $300
$5.55 ................ $300.01 to $400
$6.50 ................ $400.01 to $500
$7.45 ................ $500.01 to $600
$7.45 plus $0.95 per $100 or fraction thereof over $600 to $5,000.

INTERNATIONAL REGISTRATION RATE: $10.80 (in addition to regular postal charges) PER PACKAGE. Although registration only insures your package for $45, it provides a tracking number, and requires postal employees' signatures at various stops along the way, as well as your signature upon receipt of the package. It is known to be a VERY secure international shipping method and is highly recommended. It is REQUIRED for all packages sent from me that are worth $100 or more.
INSURANCE is NOT available for international First Class shipping, but is available for Priority or Express shipping to most countries. However, those rates are much more expensive than First Class - plus, insuring an international shipment will necessitate the declaration of the FULL value of your package on the customs form. International shipping can be a rather mysterious process at times. If you have any concerns or questions about this, please email me before you bid.

SORRY TO GET HEAVY ON YOU BUT...I have zero tolerance for late payers and if I don't get your $$ on time, the item will be offered to someone else immediately. Winners who flake out will be blocked from future auctions.

WEIRD REQUESTS RE: SHIPPING/PACKING AND SO ON will be considered only reluctantly, as time and money are in short supply these days here at tinteardrop world headquarters. If you insist on having your package reinforced with vulcanized rubber, blessed by Tibetan monks, shipped across the desert via camel, etc. etc. then for fug's sake get in touch BEFORE YOU BID and I'll see what I can do.
THANK YOU!
