I always seem to get buyers who send a million PMs asking for every single measurement and photo and tiny detail (and will send like 5 reminders if I don't respond immediately), then as soon as we agree on a price they suddenly ******* dissappear.

Someone asked me for "fit pics" of shoes once (he wanted to see my feet inside the shoes, I guess?). I thought it was kind of creepy and ignored it.
