Is it form to haggle over a shoe shine or is it mean?

No it is 3TL Yakamos end of Fethiye harbour and an excellent job.

Adam does not have a set price. He takes whatever you're willing to pay him.
He does a great job and is one of the most friendly faces you'll see in Calis:D

:)could'nt agree more Anne, He even does Kenny's in return for a game of pool, a lovely fella, compared to Nesim charging up to 20 lira in his days at Calis, but thats another story.

i posted this as a reminder to people who know this great and honest person.
i never even thought of being patronising or condescending it was a sad and sorry sight to see a man that has had his confidence taken away by idiots
and seeing him again brought a frog in my throat
he has been knocked down but is trying to fight his nightmare in the only way he can..... doing shoe shine
when i mentioned may the sun shine on him
i should of said let the gods look after him and one day we all may see his smile
you were right jukebox it was a genuine post

What nice news to see Adem is back in Calis it will be lovely to see him again, whatever he charges for shoeshine it is worth it, he does a great job.

had my shoes done by adam last wednesday he only asked 4 lira so i gave him 5 the next night he wanted to do them for free because they were dusty again,i agreed that he could only do them if he took whatever change i had in my pocket,so we agreed and he did them again,when i emptied my pocket he got 5 lira again well done adam as you all say a lovely fella,seemed a little quieter than normal but a lot of the boys are like this when they come out of army,
