I bought my safe a few months ago. I had the idea to purchase a used safe, but I couldn't find one and I searched several safe shops here in Houston. I even browsed Craigslist and local classifieds.

I bought a Liberty as mentioned above. It weighs 800lbs, has 14 locking bolts and is rated for 1500 degrees for up to 60 minutes. I bought it more for theft prevention, than fire protection. I just can't help but think that if my house caught fire, the heat would melt those plastic slabs inside no matter what the rating.

As someone mentioned, they fill up fast. I use it to store my guns and more expensive cards and it is just about filled.
