Alibris enjoys a strong reputation among customers for its extensive selection of books, particularly rare and antiquarian titles, coupled with competitive pricing and reliable service. Many users appreciate the straightforward pricing structure and flat-rate shipping, which enhance their shopping experience.

Problems with payment were the main issue. Everything else is fairly user friendly although it delayed me a bit comparing publication dates and locations of different editions of a book - making that more visible would add to the quality of the experience.

Having to put in the details Of the same card every time ready puts me off using your website

Date of experience: August 19, 2025

I have made three purchases, from your website, within the last week. Each time you have demanded, that I re-enter my bankcard.

If you do not correct your website, then I shall purchase my books elsewhere.

It's tiresome to have to keep on entering the same saved credit card details every time I make an order - hence only four stars.
