We monitor reviews for authenticity
Very straight forward BUT I hadn't noticed that there was an option to check what edition of a book I wanted after my 3rd purchase here. Maybe make those options more noticeable
Very easy to order and search for books!
Every time I have used you I have found the site quick and easy to use
Very good but how does one delete an invalid shipping or billing address?
One slight improvement so you won't be labled/libled as Amazon, quote the shipping cost as one selects an item and don't just chuck it in at the end.
This is very tedious, and if you want my opinion, I wld not choose your coy as a first choice.
I always get four prices and alibris is quickly sliding off my list of coys to get prices off for exactly the reason I have stated above.
Well, I saved approx 25% from other quoted prices, but it has taken me hrs to delete, chk the postage on each item individually, etc, etc, quite tedious.
Will I sit through this experience again? I think not.
Bon Voyage alibris!

The website is clear and accurate. No problem with order. Happy shopping experience so far
My order was cancelled which I understand was due to the seller. I hope it will not happen again, and I will receive my refund soon.
Delighted to find alibris as an alternative 2nd hand store of everything!
In spite of the delay due to covid and other circumstances, I have received all the books in excellent conditions.
First time and no issues other than a successful purchase:-)
So far, the books have arrived on time and without any errors.
The site was incredibly easy and quick to use. The formatting and seller reviews helped me pick a product that I have been looking for for a while.
Excellent way to buy internationally and reduce shipping costs
Well organised web site and many titles unobtainable elsewhere can be found here. Also very pleased to not be shopping at an outlet owned by Amazon!
It is very good but my I phone could not deal with changing the password.
Fast delivery, easy to navigate website, easy to track the parcel. Everything is great. You are one of my favourite services!
Easy to navigate, lots of titles available and excellent prices!
There was no option to edit my shipping address from the order page
This is a good place to find cheaper used books for my studies.
I ordered a different edition of this same book from WeBuyBooks a few days back and received a cancellation message since the supplier did not have it in stock. Why didn't they simply check to see if they had another edition of the book and propose that book to me instead? It would have been cheaper than having to make a separate order, and it would have saved me the time of doing their work for them.
A good price on a rare to find CD with low shipping costs
