I have always found that when starting out, buying lots of packs is the best option until you get about 4/5 of the cards. This is the best option for getting black and silver cards as prices are high for these. Then you can fill in the gaps by buying single cards from either ebay or Jaffas World, or you can trade any swaps you get for other single cards you need, the perplex city trades website is good for this. However, if you have any wave 4 silver swaps, I would like to trade with you as I am willing to trade lots of cards that you need for one.

Linky for PerplexCityTrades

I would recommend this method as your first port of call for getting rid of your dupes...

Looks like you need to buy packs of cards.

I ordered 12 wave 4 packs, and I've got the whole red to purple set, plus a ton of dupes. I'd say 8 packs of wave 4 and 16 packs of 1-3 ought to do it for you. You could probably cut that down by a third and be able to trade for most of what you need; though buying packs is the cheepest way to get silvers and blacks.

Good luck!

You could move to Israel? I would live in the South of the country at the moment.
