I know that my most prized cards are kept in a fire proof, water proof safe in my house, Well hidden of course....But where does everyone else keep their collections? Framed on a wall of a sports room? In the middle of a table under class in a busy room of the house for show?...
Andrew. That is a tricky question. I'm sure most people have a few things displayed or laying around, but with the rising price of your collectibles, you have to think about security and some type of insurance. A fireproof safe is great but you have to find out the heat rating. It may keep the fire out but the safe may become an oven during a fire and if you have a bunch of psa cards or any plastic protective covers everything will be ruined. Jim.
I made sure I looked into it, Trust me, Haha. It can stay in a fire of like 2000+ degrees for like 10 hours before anything inside gets the smallest bit warm.
I believe the make was Sentry, They have tons out and it is really about what you want to spend from plain key locks to a $400 finger print lock. But I do like it, Its heavy as hell but if it keeps my cards safe then a sore back is worth it.
