buy some unknown history on ebay

Very interesting. If it held rare old coins you could have a small fortune in there.

Bidding is at $690 already. Too rich for my blood but interesting none the less.
 
I'd say that 90% of safes are usually filled with what amounts to useless to any person but the one that put the stuff in it...

Deed to the land!!!! Go bid on it. 😉😛
 
Absolute BS.

Whole story made up, took an old safe, put some junk in it lmaybe including a lead bar and some quarters, and put it up on ebay...

 
Man, I'm gonna go buy a piggy bank, put some quarters and papers in it, bury it for 10 days, and then dig it up and ebay it.

LOL. I think you are right.
 
Heh, I guess if I wanted to do the same thing, I'd have to call up this same shady locksmith, instead of going to another one.

Imagine if all locksmiths were like that...

"Yeah, I'll open the door to your house for ya, but you have to put my name on the deed."

"Nice car. I'll get the door open in no time, if you let me drive it on the weekends."
 
There's bound to be valuable items in that safe, since almost everyone keeps their most valued possessions in the safe out in the barn?:roll:
 
You know they already opened it. They're just trying to scam you by selling the unknown.

Reminds me of a time I went to a computer show and they were selling top of the line hard drives for $20. They said the only catch was that the drives were untested so it was luck of the draw. They weren't sure if the drives worked or not so you might get a good one, but you might get a bad one. Take your chances for $20. But they could not be returned once you bought them, and they wouldn't let you test them at the show.

I called them on their BS and they tried to get me to stop telling customers my reasoning. I told everyone that you know 100% that all the drives were already tested by the merchant and known to be bad, because all you have to do is plug them in and test them. In a few minutes you'd know if the drive was good or bad, and you could sell a dead drive for $5 or a new drive for $150. (these were new OEM drives in opened packages that were normally going for $200 at the time) . They're not going to sell a $150 item for $20, they're going to be damn sure that they're making a profit on the deal. The were scamming you by leading you to believe that you might get a good drive for $20.
