After a lot of soul searching I have decided to offer my MISB
#41999 4x4 Crawler for trade. I've never been that mad on technic sets, and having recently bought a couple of smaller technic sets on the cheap to retry them it just confirmed to me that while I admire the skill of the engineering in them, they just aren't for me. Also I only really currently have one shelf for displaying Lego and don't really like the idea of having this as a piece that gets regularly constructed and deconstructed. As such I would much rather see it in the hands of someone who will really enjoy it.
Initially I felt bad about the idea of trading a prize won in the Fairy Bricks raffle, but a conversation with sirrich69 (who donated the prize-a fact that completely slipped my mind at the time) at STEAM put my mind at ease about trading it.
Obviously this is a big set to trade off so it might be hard to get a suitable offer, however my full wanted list can be found at
http://brickset.com/sets/wantedby-Shib but the main thing I'd really like to get out of a trade is
#10222 Winter Village Post Office to complete my winter village collection.
If anyone has that and nothing else on my wanted list I will also be willing to accept any of the typical Fairy Bricks fodder (City/Friends/Creator sets) to be passed along for donations - this would actually make me feel a lot better about trading it too.
I am based in West Berkshire if anyone is able to trade in person to save on the delivery cost which is likely to be high both ends.
PM me with any offers, if I don't get any offers that I'm happy with I might consider selling it or rethink opening and keeping it.

Had a couple of enquiries about the quality of the box - it looks fine to me, a couple of small marks that I hadn't noticed until close inspection but no crush damage or significant dings - see pictures.
