ChrisPrattsFace · 10/08/2017 09:53

Fly me over, pay me in biscuits and let me play with whatever animals you own, and I will get that safe cracked before next week!

Ken vs Kyle. Always go for the name brand.

Puzzledandpissedoff · 10/08/2017 10:56

Just wondering - and forgive me if I've got this wrong - but didn't OP say she'd tried to contact the company who made the safe and the number wasn't available or something?

Only I checked online and they do still seem to be trading ... ?

WooWooSister · 10/08/2017 11:28

Don't wait for Kyle to come back next week with a tool.
Go straight to Ken, do not pass go, do collect £200 because you will need it to pay Ken

VeryCunningStunt · 10/08/2017 11:29

I just know that safe is going to be empty...

If it ever gets opened, of course. Which I have a nagging feeling it won't.

OytheBumbler · 10/08/2017 13:21

This has probably been suggested but it's as good a place mark as any.

How to crack a safe

LimitedSedition · 10/08/2017 14:03

Next week, then...

Rubyslippers7780 · 10/08/2017 14:10

Does he not know about all of us???? Waiting on him??

2017SoFarSoGood · 10/08/2017 15:53

So. Have pieced together the whole story of exactly how we ended up with Kyle.

The number to call, right on the safe, rings and rings and no answer. DH goes to the business and it is closed. Meanwhile goes (who does this?) to two other locations but neither do safes. Realtor recommends Kyle's family business. Locally owned, we now suspect he is a grandson of founder. Message left to call.

Meanwhile continues to call number on safe and finally gets a human who tells him they don't do safes (name is Safe Company!) but give him Ken's name and number. They recommend him. Leave a message with Ken. DH meanwhile does deal with Kyle. Ken four days later gets back with Tuesday offer at higher price than Wednesday offer. DH sets up for Wednesday. And thus Ken turned into Kyle.

Penny foolish. You get what you pay for. All the old saws at work here.

DH suitably chagrined. We're not quite sure how to proceed.
