    This is absolutely ridiculous. You did your best to ask for the price before getting the job done, it’s not your fault Harry. The man had other plans from the start. I’m sorry that you had to face such a bad incident in our beautiful country. This video will help the locals as well to avoid such scammers in our country.

    In Sri Lanka, price of a pair of shoes will be around RS 3000. There are some people trying to scam foreigners. Even some times they scam Sri Lankan people too. If you are buying some thing or hiring taxi, first thing you have to do is ask for price. If he doesn’t say, better thing is to leave him. Since you are a full time traveller, getting caught on those scammers is very low compared to other foreigners. But, some foreigners get caught on those scammers. There are alot of genuine sellers. But this is definitely disgusting.

    That was disgusting. I would've been so angry, but you guys kept your calm, well done.
    Him not giving you a price was a massive red flag. Never agree to anything without confirming the price first, that goes for everything, in any country.
    I guess you trusted him easily because, like you said, you've had only good experiences with Sri Lankans prior to that. Tbh, I would've got away from him as soon as he touched your shoes without your permission - that was another red flag for me.
    The part about him having 35 years of experience cleaning shoes is probably fake because he clearly didn't clean your shoes properly.
    Thank you for giving the shoes away instead of binning them

    This is unfortunately widespread in Sri Lanka.
    Tuk-tuk riding can also be annoying. Even when you agree on a price, you may find yourself in an unpleasant situation. Higher prices for tourists is a standard. A smile on people's faces means trouble very often. The solicitation attempts take place on the train, beach, shops, tuk-tuk, name it yourself. It's a pity it looks like that. Non-trade people are very nice and friendly.

    I guess his price would have come down rapidly if he had known that he would be featured on UA-cam. But your shoes would still be ruined.
    Being in such an obvious place & now notorious, I expect our scamming friend to be moving to a different locality soon.

    Harry no doubt you were scammed! but on the other hand you shouldn't have asked him to carry on with the job when he refused or ignored to give you a price! He basically destroyed your shoes!! At least you learned a valuable lesson now as a foreigner! He's a vulture preying on foreigners!

    Well. It's same as Sunglasses video.
    This type of scammers are very energetic and eager to do your work...... Kind of forceful obviously,
    But unlike physical goods, services should be negotiated before they do anything.

    U are better than these other people who do things like this and post it on UA-cam to get views.
    Please keep being the best brother

    I'm sorry for your experience. I mean, it was a funny video for what happened with your shoes, but I can imagine it must be annoying. I visited Sri Lanka years ago and enjoyed many things while there - but things like this do happen in almost any country where there are many tourists. It's life I guess - sometimes people get desperate and do all sorts of things - it's not an excuse, but good to see you've been very gracious about it.

    This is a great lesson: be sure to figure out the price before any trade!
    He deliberately didn't negotiate the price and you should leave; poor Harry, always getting bad guys!😥😪😭
    Thank you for sacrificing yourself to teach everyone a lesson, I will support you forever, poor Harry!
    Note: I was surprised that I thought Ali would negotiate for you, but he just paid for you, both of you are too gentle;
    it's really kind of you to donate your shoes in the end!👍😃👏
    這是很棒的一課:任何交易進行前,一定要把價格弄清楚!
    他故意不談價錢就應該離開;哈利好可憐,總是遇到壞人!
    謝謝你犧牲自己給大家上了一課,永遠支持你,可憐哈利!
    註:我意外的是我以為阿里會幫你談判,結果他只是幫你付錢,你們兩個都太溫和了;
      最後你把鞋子捐出去真的很善良!

    You and Ali handled the situvation very well. But remember, not everyone like that. He worked middleast though, he couldnot do better job after back for living. Also sad about it. Our heart should be good.
