Ok let's say that you buy a champion that you like the idea of and you play him or her and do not like them well your so many IP in the hole now. Well how about you can trade that champion in for another champion that is of equal or lesser value. What do you guys think about this idea?

Lesser, yes. Equal, no.
Reason behind this, "Herp, I don't like Kog'Maw that I bought 6-7 months ago. I'll trade him for the new guy! Derp derp."
End stupidity.
I would only be with the "equal value" part if it was only within like.... 1-2 days/hours otherwise it's just gonna be abused. Also, only a certain number of times a month too. I think there was a thread about this a while ago...

Not to shoot down your Idea, but I doubt riot would ever do it. You spending the time to save up for a character, buy him, and then not like him just helps them out more -- you're going to buy another champ, so you'll probably start the process over again. You may then be more inclined to buy RP, so it doesn't take so long, which helps them out more.

Personally, I think it's a decent idea, I just doubt it would happen :/

I'm an idealist I like to create new ideas for everyone I like the idea of a cool down. Ther reason I thought of this idea is that when I first started to play league of legends I had a huge win streak and did some research on udyr. So I bought and played him and he did not fit my playing style at all and I would have like to trade him. Let's say the first swap is a freebie and then after so u can only do once a month or once every two months.

Then Riot loses a lot of revenue, besides I think they do that already....Something about a rotation...

Players would not be able to do it with RP purchased champions. You could on swap once a year or you could purchase a swap with RP.

Well, then the arguement here is; I spent my time farming IP, I'd like to get a refund for my time. As an Economist, I can tell you that's impossible, and counter-productive for Riot on two grounds; 1) It encourages you to play the game more often, and thus more exposed to their products, 2) If trading was an option, especially with RP as you propose, then why wouldnt you just buy RP and buy a champion with the RP?

I understand where your coming from, really the same thing happened to me and Eve, but it won't be implemented.
