Three times, now, I have commissioned fic, each from a different writer:
First time, I gave the writer a list of prompts and told them to pick whichever they liked best (on the assumption that they'd be more likely to write something good if the prompt was one that inspired them). They expressed enthusiasm, sent me nothing for six months (while still active on Tumblr, it's not like they'd been hit by a bus), I chased them up, they were apologetic, and at about the nine month mark they sent me what they'd written - about 400 words of standalone paragraphs and loose sentences.

Second time, they wrote nothing at all, contacted me after nine months and apologised and gave me a refund (even though they hadn't actually gotten my money, it was a charity thing). I was disappointed, but I've committed similar offences myself, and it was good of them to fork out the money on top of the apology.

Third time, I assured the writer that I don't mind if it takes a while, I don't mind if it's just a scene or two, a drabble, whatever.
That was in February. I've heard nothing since. We'll see how we go.
