Gauging Interest, tire kicking the idea of trading my Opus X's

Bear with me here for a little while, might have a lot to type and I am doing it from my phone. Let me say I am sorry now.
Specifically, I am interested in trading for some older hard to find Camacho's that are listed below.
Camacho Face Off
Camacho Limited Harvest
Camacho Meritage
Camacho Negro
Camacho Liberty, years I have "NOT" had and am looking for- ('02,'03,'05,'10,'11), (thanks for the 2012 Flowbee!!!)
Ok the long story-
First, if the Opus X cigar was a gift/bomb I am keeping it and will be smoking it on a special occasion.
Second I don't have anything rare fancy or special, that I know of, I am by no means an Opus aficionado. All I know is I have bought a few here and there over the last 6 months or so. Most of what I have is two of several sizes. My plan was to smoke one sooner than later and age the second to try later. If the interest is here, I'll go through my "Opus tray" in my aging humidor and figure out exactly what I have and am willing to trade. Also some are already ear marked to be bombed out.
Why I am kicking the tires with this idea and your chance to sway me one way or the other.
So far I have smoked a Lost City and what I think was a regular FFOX Perfexion 4. Basically I am just not impressed so far. Yes they were both a good cigar and no complaints about them. (burn, draw, smoke volume were all great, and flavors were "just ok" to "good" with a sweet spot here and there of "good" to "better than good" flavors) To me it was a very mild cigar and for all the hype they receive I don't see what the fuss is all about. I have read that they are suposed to be "full" this and that and to make sure you smoke with something in your stomach. Last night I smoked the Perfexion 4 about six hours after eating lunch and still thought it to be on the very mild side. I also read that if I let them age that they are suposed to become more mild with time. To me if my biggest complaint was it is mild, aging is the last thing I want to do, correct? Do the flavors really improve with age and would I regret not having these to try at a later time?
So, let's hear what you have to say. We can talk Opus all you want, I'll read it.
Of course if anyone has any of the Camacho's I am looking for I'll trade anything I have in my bio (should be mostly up to date) you are interested in or if it is easy to get I'll get you what you want, or I can also just pay you if that is your preference. Let's talk. Main thing is I am not looking for bombs.
