The world commendation gear usually lines up with the end of that planet's levels. So if you get much beyond the high end of the planet's difficulty level, then trading up makes sense.
For example, Ord Mantell (1-10) commendations aren't too useful if you're level 25, since few of the Ord Mantell commendation items will be an upgrade for you at that point.
