<p>[QUOTE="frech001, post: 2211985, member: 20616"]My uncle was a coin collector and saw the charges for a safe deposit box consuming the increase in value of the coins he had so decided to buy a safe like this. He paid several employees to help him move it across town and get it into the back door of his house, which had a short landing and proceeded directly into the basement and laterally into the kitchen. He placed planks on his stairway, got a heavy block and tackle and a 4 x 4 to bridge across the back door frame. As he was lowering it into the basement the 4 x 4 broke, the stairs collapsed and the safe proceeded into the basement and took out his furnace. He had to sell his coin collection to pay for the repairs and furnace replacement. The safe had been damaged and the combination dial wouldn't turn. His children ended up selling the house with the old empty safe in the basement.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
