General Storage Auction Talk / Re: Safe !
« on: March 12, 2014, 05:21:36 PM »
I think I have bid on and won 2 units with safes showing. One unit I didn't see the safe but others did, luckily it was a group of newbies so even the unit with the safe showing under clothes that I missed only cost me somewhere around $350-$400. Not much other then paperwork in the safe if I remember correctly but contents that should have been in the safe were all over the unit. I think the details on this one are in the V.I.P. section.
The other unit with a safe cost me $1250. I thought the unit was still worth it at that price with or without a safe showing. I saw this one! Almost nothing of any re-sale value in it, mostly homemade porn and personal info; social security numbers, birth certificate, etc. except there was this little bag at the bottom of the safe and a nice 14k ring popped out of it.
Had one other safe in a unit and it was hidden waaayyy in the back, and ohh boy, that was a nice one! Sorry boys & girls no details on this one!!
Lets just say it made my day, and the one after that, and the one after that....
My new motto is "The best safes are the ones NOBODY can see!"
The real bummers, in my experience, are the small sentry fireboxes. Almost always filled with paperwork, photos, porn, drugs, & personal memorabilia (concert tickets, babies first tooth,etc.).
