Vague requests in trade... anyone else find them slightly inconvenient?

I'm talking about profession & trade. I have an Enchanter, Engineer, Alchemist and a Jewelcrafter which I use to sell what I can make. Now I don't sit around in Dalaran all day trying to make an much money as I can at any cost of time, but i'm happy to cut a gem or craft something if people say what I want - that way I can guarantee what I get out of it unless someone gets in first. But when I look in trade all I see is this
lf jc
lf rogue
lf guild :D
lf enchanter
lf engineer
and I just wonder if offering is worthwhile. If people are so vague, will they even respond? Do I have what they need? Usually I don't respond unless a guildie is asking. Amazing how much more convenient it would be if everyone in trade said exactly what they wanted but I don't think that will ever happen :(

As a maxed-out JC close to having all the Wrath cuts I'll check what level they are and what zone they're in. If they're 70+ and in the same city I am then I'll either post my JC macro in trade or /w it directly to them. If they're a lower level or not in my city then I usually ignore it unless I have nothing better to do than port to IF or SW from Dal and back.

I do something very similar to "Toldu". I usually check where they are first before sending them a whisper. A lot of times if I'm just posting my JC link in trade and someone wants something from another city I just tell them to meet me in Dalaran. I don't travel anymore unless they need a lot of work and they're willing to tip me well.

I hate vague request. I always send them a tell with some sarcastic answer to show how their request are too vague.

Why browse ingame off random people when you can browse on wowhead?

If I vaguely request something its usually because I just want to browse, not looking for anything specific
Most people who make vague requests are actually looking for something specific - if you want to windowshop so to speak, you can just say "LF 450 LW, want to browse"
