Alibris enjoys a generally positive reputation among customers, particularly for its wide selection of used books at competitive prices and reliable shipping. Many customers appreciate the timely delivery and the ability to track orders, contributing to overall satisfaction. However, concerns arise regarding the variability in book conditions, with some items not meeting expectations, and delays in shipping for urgent needs. Additionally, the separate shipping fees for each book can deter purchases. Despite these issues, the platform remains a favored choice for many due to its extensive inventory and user-friendly website.

I love alibris! Buying used books is great for the planet and I love having a physical copy. Such great prices and I know I'm supporting small bookstores instead of mega corps! 💙
Super easy to use. Found exactly what I was looking for. I have been recommended this site to search for good deals and am so excited I found what I wanted.
2 books were correct but I was supposed to get "Small Favors" by Erin Craig but instead got a children's book about a lamb. Since it was only $1.87, it would be more to return it, so I kept it. Otherwise, the quality of the other 2 books was great and arrived in a timely manner
I'm a first-timer, but if the book arrives within the time-frame predicted at checkout, this will have been a fantastic shopping experience.
I try to buy used as much as possible. Will definitely buy from here again. Book was in perfect condition and saved over $10 buying used!
Excellent website, super easy to use! I've been looking for these DVD titles for several weeks. Not only did you have them, but by far the best prices I've seen. Awesome!
Im glad I found Alibris! The price of the cd was great and was sent fast. Website easy to navigate and they have everything I can think of. Will shop again! Thank You!
Fast and easy to navigate through. No hidden things to go though! Thanks.
I ordered this already but didn't realize you sent it to Kensington, MD. It would be good if the shipping address matched the billing address as the default so it's harder to make that mistake.
Book received has different cover than pictured which made me question if it's the same version (for translation reasons etc as it's for a study group) but ISBN is the same so ok for my needs.
Have purchased several books over the years through Alibris. Been quite easy to navigate the web site, both on my desktop computer and on my mobile phone.
I like to have and read an actual book, not a downloaded book. They have a wide selection of books. Less expensive than many Amazon used books.
I'm a childcare teacher & needed two specific books for a teaching theme & found both here. Books are in great used condition!
Everything was exactly as it appeared on the site. From the DVD, to the delivery time. It's what you hope for when you place an online order!

Thank you for your vast selection and fair pricing.
Fast shipping and good customer service.
You are a great asset to bookworms!

I found a lightly used copy of The Perfect Loaf in excellent condition when our local independent bookstores did not have it in stock.
First time customer. Easy to register. Shipping seems excessive for one book at book rate. Will see how fast it arrives from Dallas.
Ordering books with Alibris is a pleasure. I feel good about supporting a variety of book sellers. I can always find the title I'm seeking. Communications and service have always been great for me.

Easy to check for subject matter in books.
Book was not in good condition as advertised. Many pages turned down and underlined. Granted it is a very old book. Printed in the 1960s so pages yellow. My point is the book was over priced.
Been getting books from y'all for quite some time.
See no reason to stop now.
How likely would I recommend Alibris? I ALREADY DO

You're a BOOK DEALER
That says it all for me!
Larry McMurtrey would be very pleased.
After all the years I've dealt with you folks
I don't remember ever being disappointed.
THANKS Barry Bouvier
Alibris is like having the biggest used book store in the world - it is the world, i think - at one's fingertips. And it's organized, not like the stores I also love where the owner is the only one who know where everything is.
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.

If you send us the details with your order number in an email to info@alibris.com we can look into the specifics for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: Hi Valerie, If you have had a problem with your Visa or PayPal transactions on our site, please let us know the details at info@ailbris.com so that we can investigate for you. Thank you for your question. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: HI Zoila, Delivery timeframes within the States are usually between 3 and 8 days, but it depends on where the seller is that is shipping the item to you. If you have already placed an order, please contact us at info@alibris.com with your order details and we can investigate for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: Really Michael, contact you directly? Why should we have to. There is a bad trend here. Seems MANY of us contact you and you DONT respond
Answer: I saw the fake stellar reviews and did not dig deeper. I til... I had an issue. Initially, I wanted to give a small seller some business after COVID and the site looked really good. What a big mistake that was! Shame on this outfit.
