I was looking around eBay and can someone tell me if this is a fake Shure




It looks like a Shure E4 but I have never seen that color combination

I think it's worth the risk to see if they're fake since you're only paying $17. My guess is they're probably fake though.

I think he already answered his own question. *points at the "Listed as E4C Replica" part*

no, that other site was used as a reference. I did not state I was buying it from them

I brought it off eBay for $59. Listed as genuine

deffo fake, look at the state of the lettering for starters, its all smudged, a genuine pair in that condition would never get past the factory's quality control.

It doesn't even look like the real E4c. FAKE.
