My two were in painted shells one swapped between two new shells for over a week and is now in a third one. I think just finding the right fit is hard

This is the shell guide - scroll down for Es. I am a fan of this page.

I bought shells from Naples. Shipping costs were ew, because I live in Canada, but service & packaging were great. Sizes were a little on the larger side.
