REBUTTAL OF "paulanis.com"
In 2019 or 2020 a malicious person used my personal name without permission to publish "paulanis.com," which is a defamatory website containing lies and untrue information about me and about Studio Anise. The author of the defamatory website chose to remain anonymous knowing full well that he/she is presenting a false and skewed image that does not represent how Studio Anise operated for over 10 years. His/her sole goal was and is to hurt the personal reputation and integrity of Paul Anis. If they would have been presenting truth, they could have let us know who they are so we can address any concern they may have had. We are taking legal action to have the site removed and unmask the identity of the person behind it.
Please see below our rebuttal and full refutation of the contents of this vicious and unwarranted personal attack. It is hard to imagine that it is allowed from a legal perspective to use someone else's personal full name without their permission to create a defamatory website about them.
STUDIO ANISE
Studio Anise was a designer furniture Store that operated in Soho New York for over 10 years. Studio Anise closed in 2022 due to complications stemming from the prolonged Covid19 shutdown that affected many independent small retail businesses.
During our operation for over 10 years we represented several premier furniture suppliers and served hundreds of satisfied clients. Unfortunately, there were delays in delivering a few orders mainly in 2019 and 2020 due to sudden changes in payment terms with some suppliers and the onset of the Covid19 supply chain / shipping issues worldwide, long shutdown period and dramatic slowdown of local business. Unfortunately, our suppliers refused to offer us any help during this difficult period. However, ALL ORDERS WERE DELIVERED TO OUR CLIENTS. In addition, we offered clients who had delays with their orders free delivery and store credits in order to win their satisfaction.
Please see below explanation or reply to the reviews listed in the illicit and defamatory website mentioned above. Some of the reviews are fake and unfounded written by people that we had no relation with. We cannot find any clients in our records with the names of their authors.
Studio Anise received many positive reviews during its years in operation.

They do not keep their promise on delivery. Paid for my Rolf Benz table at the beginning of July for delivery in mid-October. Promised delivery on time. Mid October came, the delivery date shifted to mid November. Followed up on the status....
Order was delivered to client in December 2018. Client contacted us after the initial order and purchased other furniture which we supplied.

I ordered an Interlubke cabinet from Studio Anise in August 2019. Paid about $10k up front. I still have never received it. Paul Anis is running a scam. He makes himself difficult to reach by phone and email, and when you finally manage to, he will make up excuses for why your furniture is "delayed". He's scamming so many people at once that it's difficult for him to keep his story straight. My cabinet was supposedly "on a boat" in February and then "just being finished in the factory" in September....
Order was delivered to client. Unfortunately, the long distance delivery company damaged the cabinet. It took the supplier a long time to identify the parts needed for replacement and our claim for transport damage was rejected by the delivery company's insurance after a long wait. We offered client to help with the damaged parts and the delivery.

Worst decision I ever made. AVOID this store ! We ordered bathroom fixtures in December and paid in full and haven`t received them yet (August !!). .....
All items were delivered to client. We apologized for the delay mainly stemming from long wait for shipping tiles from Sicily, Italy. We had to wait on the supplier to arrange for shipping.

Warning: This business is a scam. Do not do business with them, or its owner Paul Anis. My wife bought a Rolf Benz sofa there in April 2019. Paul Anis requested a full advance payment of about $10,000 to get the order processed, and the sofa produced in Germany. He promised delivery would be in 8 - 10 weeks....
This review appeared also on Google, but was removed by Google since it does not represent what happened. Client received their order but regretfully there was a delay with the initial delivery. Their sofa was damaged at the final leg of the long distance delivery twice while being moved from the truck into their home. We replaced the sofa and paid for it in full and for long distance delivery each time. Client promised that he will remove the review.
