RAAM BAND COLLECTIONS ™

Over a dozen product types go through the back door here, with no small share returning as something new. RAAM BAND COLLECTIONS accepts electronics and clothing—plus the occasional recycled clothing drive bonus—turning yesterday’s castoffs into today’s stock. Walk in with an old phone or four seasons of overhanging shirts and you’re already halfway through the hardware swap.

The seventh floor at 211 East 43rd tries hard not to advertise, but the address is sealed in if you squint at the directory. After the elevator dings, the nearest elevator bank deposits you at suite 470 with a straight shot across the hall. Whether it’s a tablet, sweater, or tower PC, the drop-off line rarely exceeds a single customer once lunch spikes toward two.
