Austin, Texas-based seller? It wasn't Robert by any chance, trying to raise a few quid? :D

Here's the original ebay auction http://www.ebay.com/itm/LED-ZEPPELIN-2-sided-7-metal-ACETATE-Atlantic-Your-Time-Is-Gonna-Come-/111038681056?pt=Music_on_Vinyl&hash=item19da6bcfe0&nma=true&si=8YEv72ycjIfu%252BFQAHXlwMItUVWQ%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

It says the "the great guitar instrumental (on the flip side) from the first album that I don't know the name of the song", so I guess it's "Black Mountain Side"

There is some controversy regarding this seller and the authenticity of the acetates he's selling. It appears one German guy was unhappy with his Bob Dylan item, but that's the only neg in his feedback.
