Advice: Pose is the exact opposite of what I wanted.

So I need some advice here. An artist was doing $5 fullbody and shaded pieces because they were in need of money. Well they're art was nice and I decided to get a two character piece. Well actually five because the two character is part one of two. Anyway I said I wanted for the first part the two characters bending over in a presenting fashion. What I got was a front view of them standing. So what should I do? Ask for a redraw or get take it and leave?

Edit: I should probably update this. XD Sorry forgot. Well anyway I told the artist about the mistake and said this was okay, but she decided to redo it anyway after she gets a new tablet and finishes the last person left on her to do list. So the issues is resolved it seems.

Hm, if the wording in the note was just "in a presenting pose", I can see where confusion might come in. Bending over is pretty specific though.

Like everyone else said, check the parameters of the commission. If it doesn't say the artist gets to choose the pose, go ahead and ask if they'd be willing to redraw it.
