[QUOTE="ikandiggit, post: 771799, member: 16269"]My girlfriend was over at Christmas and we were talking about my collection(s) and during the course of the conversation she made me aware of just how much I had accumulated in a short span of time. I knew somewhat what I had but because I added to it slowly, it grew without me realizing how much in dollar value was sitting around. I have a safety deposit box that I keep my better stuff and important papers in but because I've been buying almost weekly, I wouldn't have enough room in it for what I have at home. I'm also researching and photographing some of it, and it would be a pain to make a daily trip to the bank to retrieve something I wasn't done with. After reading about all the break-ins recently, I got worried. So, today I bought a 400 pound safe. It's an old office style one, kind of like the ones you see in the movies. A friend of mine has offered to wire it up to the alarm system on a different circuit, so if it gets tampered with, it'll set off the sirens. I never dreamed I would get to this point but I feel a bit more relieved that I can lock up my stuff but still have it accessible when I need it.[/QUOTE]
