Magic Swaps Thread

[The Question]

I noticed that we didnt have one of these yet, so I'm starting one! If and until Fox1 makes this thread a sticky, I'll put down the one major ground rule:

The thread is for swapping only. NO sales of any type allowed.

I'll start. I've just got back into Magic recently after a long hiatus and bought a few boosters and decks. This card however, I am willing to swap already as I have no use for it personally, but it may interest you considerably:

Felidar Sovereign, 4WW, 4/6, Mythic Rare, Vigilance, Lifelink. At the beginning of your upkeep, if you have 40 or more life, you win The Game.

What I want for this? As I said, I'm just getting back into Magic, so I will swap this for a stack of decent Black cards of any rarity. In particular I would seriously consider a stack that contained among it's number:

Consume Spirit
Corrupt
Drudge Skeletons
Duress
Ostracize
Mind Rot
Hypnotic Specter
Fear
Dark Blade
Pestilance
Urza's Armor
Any card with the word 'Phyrexia' in it's name
Underworld Dreams
Nightmare

Please note that all bar the last two are commons and uncommons.

:) OK, just so as nobody thinks I'm being awkward by not listing my swops when I say that I've got lots of swops to trade. I thought I would just list the cards from just one pack (I keep the more valuable swops in Mtg Tournament packs):-
Protean Hydra (Mythic); Nightmare (rare); Penance (unc); 2 x Orcish Settlers (unc); Cinder Seer (unc); Fog Bank (unc); Aether Sting (unc); Legacy Allure (unc); Mogg Assassin (unc); Viashino Heretic (unc); 2 x Wall of Bone (unc); Sleep (unc); Grove of Burnwillows (rare); 2 x Hymn to Tourach (much sort after); Merfolk Sovereign (rare); Honor of the Pure (rare); Aven Mimeomancer (rare); 3 (yes 3!) x Regal Force (rare); Knotvine Paladin (rare); 2 x Woolly Thoctar (unc); Rhox War Monk (unc); Sprouting Thrinax (unc); 2 x Seaside Citadel (unc); 3 x Savage Lands (unc); 2 x Crumbling Necropolis (unc); 2 x Arcane Sanctum (unc); 2 x Wanderwine Hub (rare); Murmuring Bosk (rare); Ancient Amphitheatre (rare); 2 x Colfenor's Urn (rare); Punish Ignorance (rare); Heartmender (rare); Evershrike (rare); Cemetary Puca (rare); Wake Thrasher (rare); 2 x Grimoire Thief (rare); Colfenor's Plans (rare); Fire Field Ogre (unc); Unstoppable Ash (rare); Timber Protector (rare); Reach of Branches (rare); Leaf-Crowned Elder (rare); Eyes ofthe Wisent (rare); Dauntless Dourbark (rare); Cream of the Crop (rare); Battlegrace Angel (rare); 2 x Armageddon (rare - and sort after); 2 x White Knight; Than Golem (rare); Identity Crisis (rare); Mayael's Aria (rare); Hellkite Hatchling (unc); Skyward Eye Prophets (unc); Meglonoth (rare); Banefire (rare); 2 x Countersquall (unc); 3 x Volcanic Fallout (unc) and Viashino Slaughtermaster. I have 7 of these boxes and this is just one. My commons are even more numerous so it is impossible to list them all here - just ask me what you want and I'll see if I've got any swops.:) In response to 'The Question' - I have Corrupt, Nightmare, Drudge Skeletons (loads), Doom Blade (not Dark Blade); Fear; Mind Rot and a few cards with Phyrexia(n) in their name (such as Phyrexian Reclamation) as swops.

Just a cautionary message since this is about Magic Swaps. Just because a card is a Mythic rare DOESN'Tmean it is valuable. Some common cards are in fact more valuable than some Mythics. Not wishing to burst The Question's bubble here but Felidar Sovereign is available on ebay (through reputable traders not private sellers) for £1.71 and I've seen it advertised here in this country for only £1.75 (out of due deference to Alan I will not say where). Whereas Hypnotic Specter (which is rare NOTuncommon) is worth £4.00 or more at most dealers. Also Duress (common) is actually going for 75-99p most places and Doom Blade (the M10 common) is also retailing at around the £1.00 mark. I've got several swaps of Rancor (common), Dark Ritual (common) and Hymn to Tourach (common) which are from older sets and they are all worth £2-£3 each on the net! Just to sum up - don't be fooled by the rarity 'Mythic' when trading cards!;)
