I like the Airplane reference as well.
I get what you are saying, but I also understand the dealer side as well (I'm not a dealer, but I've talked to enough of them over the years about trades). After hearing so many ridiculous offers for trades, most of them just aren't worth their time listening to if they are busy and could lose a potential sale to someone else. It's kind of like the trades people call into sports talk shows and suggest their team should make only to be told by the host that team x isn't going to give up their potential Hall of Famer who is still only 28 for 2 middle relievers. GMs don't want to be bothered listening to offers like that any more than dealers do when someone offers to trade 100 commons for a Mickey Mantle.
