Swapping with someone seems like a reasonable solution. You should post the model and clamp size you have, and the clamp size you need, so people can know if they can help.
BTW- it might help if you threw in the postage, and maybe a coupla beers.

Of all the components in any group, the front derailleur is one of the least expensive so buy or trade for the correct one.
