I was happy to meet one of the owners that was there. His name was Connor. He was helpful and informative. I was happy to support a private business, and not a typical Corporation. In fact, this is not a typical book store. It's intriguing, enlightening and has depth. I highly recommend. A store with class in itself. A shout out to The Dancing Elephant. A must visit...a true Gem.

For the past year and 9 months I have been looking for the right pair of Sonus Faber Nova I's. I…read morehave OCD and care about condition but don't have the budget for a new pair. I have found a few for a good price but they just weren't right. I found audio advisors and saw they had a pair so I called. The first and last question I asked was about the condition. The person I spoke with said several times they are like new and even said they are "perfect". He said the person who owned them had several houses and barely used them. To me "like new" means they are just like a new product but were opened and used. And perfect obviously means perfect. To my surprise they did not include the manual like a new pair would and the bottoms of both speakers have several very large scratches all over. This is the most I've spent on speakers and I planned to have these the rest of my life so I would rather not have them than have a pair with damage. Like I said I searched for almost 2 years for the right pair and the pair audio advisors sold me were not as described. I asked several times and each time I was not told the trust. I called to express my disappointment and the same person I spoke with made it seem as if it was my fault. He said "well you did buy a used pair". Yes, I know they were used but I was told several times they looked new and were perfect. Then condescendingly told me "The scratches are on the bottom you won't see them." Okay well there is also a blemish on the front of both speakers. Regardless, thats not the point and he was just making it worse. I was very calm never rude just disappointed but he handled it poorly and never apologized never looked for a solution just made it seem as if it was my fault for buying used. Like I said I asked several times about condition so I don't see how this was my fault. He then said plug them in and listen to them they're great speakers. He never seemed to want to help and never addressed my concerns. I don't know if he even understood (or cared) what the issue was. Additionally, I waited almost 2 weeks for a shipping quote. Fine things take time I get it but the issue was I had to call back after a week and remind them I was waiting. Still nothing after several more days so I called back again and they had the information. I wish they called me to let me know but okay. Lastly, I wanted to mention a few days after the initial call I got a call from the person I spoke with thinking they had the quote but he called me by accident thinking I was someone else. Not a big deal at all but goes to show they are unorganized. Needless to say I am very disappointed with the entire transaction but mostly disappointed my almost 2 year search ended this way. There are plenty of other places out there that are honest and if there was an issue would handle it much more professionally.

Raptis Rare Books specializes in rare, antique, and first edition books. As a young child, Matt Raptis had a deep love of history which led him into a future career of collecting and selling rare books. In 2016 Matt and Adrienne Raptis moved from Vermont to open their rare book business on Worth Avenue. In 2021 they moved to the gallery space they currently occupy on Worth Avenue next in Via Roma and in 2022, Raptis Rare Books purchased The Harcourt Bindery, the oldest and largest book bindery in the United States. The couple once purchased for $1 a signed first edition of "Catcher in the Rye" near author J.D. Salinger's home which they sold for $80,000. Other rare books that have been in their collection include an original 1859 copy of Charles Darwin "The Origin of Species" and an original printing of "The Cat in the Hat" inscribed by Dr. Seuss. Books in their collection have influenced generations and shaped history and culture. The books here are worth thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars. In addition to selling individual books the couple will consult with rare book collectors to help them to build their libraries. In an increasingly digital age it is nice to see that books are still valued in our society.
