Wasting $$ on Postage?
Why do People Trade Base for Base? is that not Wasting $$ in Postage? I Mean i have Friends who tell me im Wasting $$ on Postage when i trade for a low end GU or Auto, I Mean i only deal in GU and Autos then Base and Rookies added with the Trade and i know alot of other people do as well. I Can see the point if u desperatly need stuff to complete a set or somthing but this trading of base and inserts i just dont understand....

as in my case that is all i collect. my player collection is all base cards for the most part. the sets i am trying to complete are base. for me though, i dont care if someone send base cards i need in PWE as long as i get them.

Different strokes for different folks. Not everyone cares about GU or autos, a lot of people only collect RCs or inserts or base. It's all about what you like and what you give value to.
And this isn't directed at you, just a ton of "why do some people do this or not do that" threads and posts lately (I actually just posted in another one before this): Why is it so hard to understand and/or accept that some people like to do things differently?

All everyone wants now a days are manufactured patches and $400 cards... The hobby is ruined IMO, trading base for base and trying to get as many cards as one player or team as possible is tons more fun IMO. Nobody appreciates base/rookies, I've even heard of people throwing them away. That's why I don't like Exquisite/NT/Ultimate, you pay like $350 for one pack with like 6 cards...? I don't care if they're almost all auto's/GU's, it's just not as fun and you don't get as much value as a regular box.
