Business that tried to ban Republicans owed more than $15K in back rent DERRY — An owner of the Depot Square Office Building at 6 West Broadway said Bill Williams of The Used Apple Store was evicted from his unit in early February after neglecting to pay rent for seven months.
Manoj Munjal of NNM Realty Trust — an Andover-based management company that owns the building — told The Eagle-Tribune that Williams was served court paperwork that required him to moved out of the building by Feb. 14. He rented the space for five years.
Williams left in time, Munjal said, but the space remains littered with broken computer parts. For weeks, a sign in the window said The Used Apple Store would re-open after renovations, which Munjal said is not true.
"He kept his store very smelly and I complained to him quite a few times," Munjal said. "He was really late in payments and he was very rude to his customers. I was there a couple times and heard him tell people to get out or he'd call the police."
According to court documents, Williams rented the commercial space for $2,000 per month and owed $15,110.
Williams said that the eviction is "complicated," explaining that he still had a key even after the eviction notice was filed, which led him to believe he was still welcome there. He wants to retrieve the last of his belongings from the building before a new renter moves in, he said.
Another technology repair company, this one called EZ Apple Repairs, will move into the storefront soon, Munjal said.
"(The new renter) is really concerned about all of this going on," Munjal said. "He wants people to know he's not affiliated with Bill at all."
Williams made headlines last week when a post on the company's Facebook page announced that Republicans would not be served anymore. The rule was ditched a few days later, Williams said, after an uproar on social media included threats of protests and legal action from locals.
"If you affiliate with the Republican Party you are not welcome into our store," the Facebook post warned. "We will not offer you service." Store employees were said to have been capable of sensing Republicans based on their "uptight, closed energy" and "negative aura." The Facebook post described members of the political party as "almost evil, and to be honest, usually evil."
A few years ago, Williams asked customers to bring in cash, up to $1,000, and promised to double it and return it to them in 90 days with no risk — in effect, selling a security, according to the New Hampshire Bureau of Security Regulation.
In November 2016, Williams was ordered by the bureau to pay $5,000 in fines and administrative fees and an additional $713.50 to cover the cost of the bureau's investigation.
Barry Glennon, director of the New Hampshire Bureau of Securities Regulations, said last week that "(Williams) continues to have financial obligations that we continue to monitor."
Tuesday afternoon, the windows of The Used Apple Store were blocked by black tarps and a sign in the entrance way pointed out that the new business moving in was not affiliated with Williams.
Ha Ha!
Who’s ‘not welcome’ now?
Sounds like the Barack Obama business model.
That title made me think Ireland and thought “what the hell are they talking that way again....not good....Republicans”
The general population is turning into zombies. Too much mind control by way of TV or Cell phone or computer time. Too bad.
Another anal leftist shot down by Trump. Unfortunately he can probably get unemployment compensation.
“He kept his store very smelly and I complained to him quite a few times,” Munjal said. “He was really late in payments and he was very rude to his customers. I was there a couple times and heard him tell people to get out or he’d call the police.”

TYPICAL Demoncrat!!!
He wasn’t an employee.
Seems rather high. I would've only charged $500 for the dumpster diving.
No, the population is reflecting Jimmy Carter’s Education Department and the NEA/AFT conversion of our public education system to the public indoctrination system.
Everyone to get a trophy for participation and the word “No” being reserved for only dealing with conservatives.
Well, that no-republicans-allowed business model worked out well.
Someone who doesn’t pay their bills hates Republicans? Will wonders never cease? /s
What is it with loony democrats and paying their bills...
“Well, that no-republicans-allowed business model worked out well.”
This is in Massachusetts, right ? I can’t imagine any republican even seeing that sign.

So how did that virtue signaling business model work for you, Mr Williams?
Every business following this model needs to die. Not by lawsuit, as in bake the cake or else. By marketplace. Treating a large percentage of customers like crap works wonders.
