Quick example - I custom ordered some drapes back when I was still working. There was an issue with the fabric length, so I told the curtain guy that I wanted a chocolate brown border on the top and the bottom, with the fabric I’d chosen in the middle. He refused. I’d already paid him half the cost, so I asked him why he was refusing. “You won’t like the curtains, and you won’t pay for them.” Dumbfounded, since I’d designed the curtains I wanted, I said that I would indeed pay for them if he made them the way I requested. He said he’d only do it if my husband approved the design first. I told him I didn’t have a husband, and he was utterly confounded when I told him I owned the house. The only way he would make the drapes was if I paid him the full cost up front.

This was in 2010, IIRC.
