Shure E4Cs. Help with fitting sleeves!!

[RobinJJ]

Hi guys, i'm new to this forum and would appreciate your help.
 
I bought these E4Cs and the foam buds/sleeves from Shure to fit on them, problem is they don't!
 
The nozzle is too wide for the new sleeves. The nozzle seems to be like those on 

my old E2Cs, and i bought these new foam sleeves for my E4Cs because my understanding is that my old E2C sleeves wouldn't fit.
 
I'm a bit confused. Can someone tell me whether this is the standard nozzle for E4Cs on this pic?
 
Thanks!
 
Rob

Those look like the counterfeit E4C's they sell on eBay. I'm sorry, but no Shure E4C/SCL4 ever had a white/black hybrid colour scheme.

I have to agree with SolidVictory.  These definitely look like the fakes sold on eBay a few years ago. An E4c/SCL4 should be either all white, all black, or all grey, no mixed color schemes.  Also, the "standard" Shure black olives fit all of their models except the E2c, which as you note don't fit on the E4c.
 
Unfortunately these appear to be fakes.  Any way you can return these for a refund?

Cheers for that lads. I'm gonna see what I can do. They don't sound bad to be fair.
