My first time around I had nothing special to offer, but once I managed to get some gen exclusive mons, I bred them and put them on the GTS asking for more exclusive mons, most the time I got what I asked for within the hour. I just left them up, went and did something and came back with a new mon for my dex.
I find the fair trades on GTS disappear almost instantly because people are always looking for them. This leaves only the unreasonable shit sitting around when you first look. That trading I did back in Feburary was pretty good for my opinion of the GTS.
