Hello and thanks for looking
I do not use the grade EX ever!
My grading scale (based on eBay standards):   Mint (only sealed) - Near Mint - Very Good  A more detailed grading scale is on the bottom.
THE BEATLES - Past Masters - Volumes One & Two 
 UK First Press 
APPLE RECORDS - BPM 1 

Cover - VG+   Vinyl - NM
you will be pleased with this baby Details: Please look at all 3 Pictures
sure, you have a UK original Revolver, maybe Rubber Soul but do you have a original UK Past Masters?  I don't think so...
Cover :  Gatefold, in great shape accept for a 1" split on the top of the front pocket. Still a real nice looking UK gatefold, nice square spine, the corners are a little bent. barcode.  manufactured in England
each record is in premium MOFI rice paper sleeves  
Vinyl :   Absolutely NM condition to the highest degree. Very shiny vinyl, high luster, Not a flaw in sight.  No spindle marks, perfectly flat.  Plays perfect.
Playback :   Sounds real nice, I quickly compared this to the new issue and I like the sound better here, the bass on the reissue is way too bloated in places.  This has so many hits it's unreal:  Day Tripper, We Can Work It Out, Paperback Writer, Rain, Hey Jude, and Revolution (and that is only some of side 3, what a set)!

I always ship within 2 days of payment. I always use proper Lp mailers with padding. If you have any questions or want more detailed pictures please let me know. I have 100% positive feedback as a seller and a buyer so please bid with confidence. No international shipping.  sorry

• MINT (M) Looks new and unplayed. Very high vinyl luster and no noticeable label defects. Sounds new. With 45rpm records, this does not always mean there is no surface noise at all. 

• NEAR MINT (NM) Looks almost new, but has some minor flaws such as a drill hole; unobtrusive writing on label (e.g., an X on a promo copy); minor scuffing on vinyl; minor color flaking on label, or other insignificant flaws that only slightly detract from visual appeal. May have some minor surface noise, but nothing distracting. 

• VERY GOOD (VG) There may be light scuffing and some of the original vinyl luster may be lost. The vinyl and label may appear used, but well cared for. Records may have some more obvious flaws that are not visually degrading such as a sticker on the label; more noticeable writing on the label; scuffing and minor scratches on the vinyl; or minor discoloration of the label. There may be very minor warping of the vinyl. There may be a slight scratch not affecting play.
