Just to weigh in on this topic, I can understand why "horse people" can be picky about their feed. We own a horse and the barn where we keep it has close to 60 horses stabled there. We take the entire crop of a local farmer. Thousands of bales per year. Hay barn is about 40x50x20, filled to the brim and overflow goes into a 80x20x20 section of the riding arena.
Whenever a new horse comes to the barn, the owner brings some hay from the previous barn. Colic is a very serious condition for a horse, I have personally seen a number of them die from it in the last couple of years. So people who have a lot invested in them are rightly concerned about what goes into their horse's stomach. That is no excuse for being rude or expecting delivery of a couple of bales 50 miles for a few bucks. Horses will eat what they want and avoid the rest. Just hand graze them in a field and you'll see how picky they can be. And if you don't want to deal with "horse people", just don't sell to them. Otherwise, state your price, tell them it is "as-is", let them load it, take their money, call it a day.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
