Title says it all. Are there any?

You could look into Bitcoin-OTC. I've never used it personally and I don't know if it's still around, but I guess it is/was a P2P BTC exchange based on a "web of trust."  You would trade MP's for BTC with ranked members, there-by gaining  rep yourself. I don't know the details really, but google can probably help.

Oh, and if I remember right, it uses Freenode IRC and requires some setting up.

subtlety said basically what I came here to say, and #bitcoin-otc is doing alive and well btw.

I actually have been trying to use bitcoin-OTC all day with little success. I have it set up and everything, but it seems like MP isn't exactly what most people over there are looking for.
