Mysterious unopened safe!

[JohnnyJones]

Apologies if it's out of order posting links to your own ebay items but this is quite an interesting one.



It may be the wrong decision, but there we go!

ETA

It is.

Bizarre. Might be worth a punt for a locksmith, though!

What was the local building that has been demolished thought....? A bank?

[Captain Flashman]

maybe it has small pox in it? we have a safe at work full of the equipment from an operating theatre that was used on a mad cow patient.

[ShadownINja]

A good point. Does depend on the location. It could have been a public building and there are old files relating to private information within. Thus passing on the data would breach the data protection act and mean the seller ends up with a hefty fine?

[JohnnyJones]

I was given it by someone who I am no longer in contact with. He had had it a couple of years in the same locked condition. He never told me where it came from.

A painting of Kate Winslet with no kit on?

May I ask why, or is it a silly question?

I'm in. I'll send you £1 after you've opened it.

How do we know he has not looked inside and put a brick in there in order to generate interest?

Fair enough. It might be worthwhile giving the ICO a call just to clarify your legal position.

Sorry,

You are selling an unopened safe AND a drill...

Anyone see what I'm thinking?

i have no idea why they kept it, i have a key to it and i know where it is but i have no desire to open it. It may be that the objects are too large to dispose of safely.

Its a new terrorist ploy - there is a bomb inside.

I've also got oxy acetylene, but decided it would be fun to auction it!
