I once had a woman ask me for advice. She was planning to sell her house, and it needed new carpet, but she was concerned that people might not like the color of the new carpet. I suggested researching the cost of new carpet, and telling prospective buyers that she had lowered the price for the house to allow them to put in whatever kind they wanted. Her reply was "But what if I did that, and they bought the house, and then didn't get new carpet?" I believe that in her mind she thought she'd somehow be cheated if that happened.
