Topic: My perseverance paid off: Brown Safe now accepts Coinbase for luxury safes (Read 4418 times)

You're saying i've done a foursome? Yeah... thats on my list !

So you want to buy a big ass safe to put a smaller safe in? because a USB key isnt that big

Strong desk is an understatement, you need a ROCK.

Thats 450lbs! .... Desk isnt built to hold such weight.

I've done missionary on a strong desk, lets just say the desk didnt last longer than a month. and we both weight less than 300lbs

It's approximately a 20" cube and weighs 450 lbs.  You need a strong desk.

I chuckled.....

Yeah i dont think you know what "desktop" means.

They charged me $275 to ship to WA state.  I got the smallest (desktop) safe, but it still weighs 450 lbs! 

They will install it for you too, but that obviously costs extra. 

Great to see another merchant accept Bitcoin. Would purchase a safe if I had anything valuable enough to store in it and if it was in my local region.

Don't loose your fingers

Well done, I will definitely bookmark this for when I finally move. Just hope I can afford some of these, they look way too nice.

Exactly. Right now, anything beyond my clothes, my laptop and a few miscellaneous things are considered excess baggage. Ah well...

Yes, even their small fire-proof safes can weigh over 400 lbs.  You don't want to be moving these things around!

Great job! Once my life becomes a bit more stable and less mobile, I'll definitely consider getting one!

Ha ha, nice! Great job!

These things are sick!  Not sure who has 900 watches though?  They get a little extreme with watch holders

This makes my safe look like junk, upgrades are in order.

You are your own bank now, this means you are responsible for your wealth but the good side is no one can refuse to give it back to you when you request it like in bank or even paypal.
It's more like cash, you need safe for it too.

Job well done sir.  It's always nice to see people ask merchants about bitcoin and to then see the merchant listen and choose to accept bitcoin. I try to do this often when shopping at places , I've had some success at some places and some blank stares at other places but it's always a great feeling to see a new merchant join bitcoin.

Enjoy the safe!

It hit me recently: should I really be keeping my bitcoin private keys in my sock drawer? I’m sure many people have had similar realizations as they’ve watched both the acceptance and value of bitcoin grow.  

I decided that I wanted to store some of my private keys in a safe. Something from Wal-Mart may suffice for certain purposes (paper money…cough…cough), but I wanted something special for my bitcoins: something extremely secure, something easy to get in and out of (my new safe has a finger-print reader), and something that would look great in my office.  

After a lengthy internet search, I decided that Brown Safe made safes that best fit my requirements (http://www.brownsafe.com).  The trouble was: if bitcoins are worth the trouble and expense of high-security storage, then shouldn’t I be able to purchase such a safe using bitcoin?

Understandably, bitcoin is a new technology and it takes a while to become comfortable with all of its benefits.  But I think I got through to the great people at Brown Safe in my last email when I pointed out (a) the credit card hack at Target that compromised 40 million people, and (b) that Overstock.com now accepts bitcoin so “you guys should too.”  Earlier today I received an email:






Followed by an invoice emailed from Coinbase:







Mission accomplished and I’m looking forward to my new safe!

Now, I didn’t get anything this fancy but I do know a certain forum member who may be looking for something like this to match his new yellow Lamborghini:
