ORDER FULFILLMENT & SHIPPING
Most orders are all PRINTED ON DEMAND are generally filled within 3 days to 1 week though we always say to allow for 2 weeks until shipping, as sometimes we have a backlog of orders, or some orders and materials require specific attention or longer print times due to greater size or complexity. We ask for your patience in this small waiting period, for it is the time needed for the production and fulfillment of such a wider variety of complex titles.
GENERAL SHIPPING INDICATIONS
Standard shipments are sent US Post, PRIORITY MAIL, as it is the fastest shipping for the most reasonable price. Currently, for International delivery this is the only option available, as there no longer is surface or ground shipping provided by the US Postal Service. We do NOT ship 1st class or Media Mail. US Post Express Shipping can be arranged, as well as Federal Express in certain cases and for an extra fee covering both shipping expenses and special processing. We do NOT ship DHL or International UPS.
Shipping rates on various orders will sometimes change and at times we may need to charge extra shipping on certain orders for reasons of unusual size, requirements of sending in separate packages, or for other unanticipated reasons. In such cases we will inform customers of required additional charges.
STANDARD SHIPPING RATES
US
$16 First book Priority Mail & $2 each additional - 2-5 working days after shipped.

Please allow 3-5 days from the time of you order for shipping, as many of our books are printed on demand, so require production time. You will receive a confirmation with tracking number when your order ships.
If an item is out of stock you will be notified by e-mail to update you to the status of your order.
No liability will be attached to The Institute of Cosmological Economics if delivery periods or dates are not met for any reason.
If a package is being sent outside the United States, the customer may be charged import duties and taxes. The customer will be liable for these costs. We have no control over these costs so unfortunately cannot predict what they will be.

WHAT OUR TRADERS SAY…
When I was able to get an early copy of Alex’s 3rd book ‘Music of the Spheres’ I was stunned by the amount and quality of the information he provides. Alex ties together astronomy, music, and correct scaling to provide a glimpse inside the market’s true structure. He clarifies the work W D Gann did a hundred years ago and then brings that work into the modern world where we can adjust scales and track planets with a click of a mouse button.
Mr. Straker is also a gifted and willing mentor if someone wishes to accelerate their learning curve with some one to one work with him.
I have read many books in 30 years of market study and was fortunate to be able to spend hours looking over the W. D. Gann archives in Nikki Jones' possession. I believe Alexander Straker has written material that will go down in history as the truly definitive work on understanding W D Gann. He also has shown how the original Gann methods can be expressed in greater detail with the use of computer chart programs.
Lorrie has a profound gift of seeing patterns and of perceiving the underlying order within whatever subject she directs her attention towards. Additionally, she has the gift of perceiving not only what is truly being said, but more importantly, what is not. She has taken on the works of W. D. Gann and Dr. Jerome Baumring in a total immersion. Her tenacity, will, and energy have been the sails, the current, and the wind of her voyage through the illusory and sometimes rocky waters of W. D. Gann.
Alex has shared a tremendous amount of knowledge invaluable to Gann students and traders. It is apparent that Alex has studied market behaviour with a great deal of enthusiasm for many years, and given considerable thought to distilling the essence of past and current masters to come up with his own unique theory about how it all fits together around the golden mean. His generosity in sharing his insights is only matched by the number of pages in this insightful volume!
I've covered a lot of material in many years of research, but never have I come across insights which more clearly point to an underlying mathematical structure to price markets which become discernible through proper scaling. Alex's scaling methods and insights are the best I've come across, particularly his angle-based approach. I'm sure that any serious student of Gann would be impressed with the unique insights generously shared by Alex and would find return for their investment in the scaling methodology alone.
