Anti Theft- How do you protect your collection?
hoverboots:
I'm about to move into my first house, and am brainstorming ideas to protect the bulk of my gaming collection. Aside from traditional home security methods (Deadbolt, alarm, dog, gun, etc), do any of you employ any unorthodox ways of securing your hoard? I've had the idea for years of a locking clear acrylic display case, don't know how practical it'd be, but yeah.
Megatron:
This guy may have some pretty good ideas.

My home was burglerised about 5 years now. My original collection was stolen. Don't buy a corner house. I have bars on the windows and rode iron doors which can't be unlocked from the inside. And a motion camera connected to an app on my phone.

I have lots of guns. Thing is, Nobody really ever comes over. So nobody really has any idea that I got shit worth stealing. I've thought about being a strange weirdo and baring my windows and reinforcing my doors... Mainly because I don't trust anyone.

^^ this is why england is shit, and the american had a VERY good reason to dump the flimsy POS offering of tea and tobacco into the boston harbor, it's been noted and RESPECTED! ;D
i wish firearms were the standard here, they seem to be in the hands of corrupt trigger-happy cops, or gvt sanctioned killers. >:(
no, all i have, is a claw hammer, and a great big fuckin ugly staffodshire bullterrier (pedigree).
hates uniforms, comes naturally to him.
my bestest friendest.
guards my shit, all for the absolutely fair price of infinite food (the same as what i eat) and plenty of attention, like a child. :P
worth it! :D
