As a frequent trader, I can see both sides of this. I have received some unsolicited trade offers on certain cards...sometimes tough ones, sometimes not. My response is generally along the lines that I'd consider trading for the right offer. I was once called "completely insane" because I was looking for around 150% trade value on a tough T207 common and the other party was offering nothing nearly as difficult.

I have been on the other side as well, when I have been fully willing to trade significantly in somebody's favor for a card I need or just really like.

That said, my general philosophy is to try to trade equivalent value/scarcity cards for each other, and I think that the vast majority of other traders are the same. I have completed tons of trades and said "no thanks" to tons of others. I have received some truly ridiculous offers but they don't bother me. I just laugh to myself, politely decline, and move on to the next deal.
