display cases at Battlehorn Castle, are they safe to store items in? i know some of the chests there aren't safe to store items in.

i was going to buy the house in skingrad but the guy that has the deed is apparently dead.

Since they're not technically containers in the technical sense, yes they are safe to store items in. They are infamous for collision errors with objects inside, particularly larger things like two-handed warhammers, but they're not going to make your belonging magically disappear.

The http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Battlehorn_Castle_(place) has a listing of all the safe containers in Battlehorn.
