Hello,
I was wondering if I could pick everyone's brain on something. My apartment was broken into once this year and they took a couple of things. Due to this, I've been a bit paranoid about having some more valuable cards stored there. They would be too easy to walk away with. I know that several of you have safes that you use to store your most valuable cards, and I want to look into this as an option.
I have a few quetions:
1: Does anyone have a specific safe they recommend? - I am looking for something big enough to hold quite a few cards, heavy enough to be difficult to walk away with, but small enough so as not to need tons of room. 2: For a fire-proof safe, what do you guys do to protect against moisture build up? It would really ##### to buy something to protect my cards and ruin them in the process... 3: Anything else I should take into account? Anything I am not thinking of?
Any advice is appreciated. I am not looking to spend a ton of money on this, so definitely looking for specific models that anyone recommends.
Thanks, Zach
