Alibris Reviews Summary
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 received a quick response to my inquiry. A photo of the book was included, allowing me to make an informed decision regarding my purchase.
I could not edit payment information easily! My name is mispelled. This box requires that I write 50 characters. That is annoying and a bit ridiculous.
Each transaction is super easy and I get unlimited
Options on price. I have been a customer for years and each time I log in to the website I quickly find what I am looking for.
Shopping on your website is always so easy, I find exactly what I am looking for and how much I am willing to pay.
Thank you
I've ordered from Alibris a few times before. The items are always just as described. I've never been disappointed! Great and trustworthy place to buy preowned cds!
This is my third time ordering from Alibris.com. The items have been true to the quality they claim it to be. I would recommend.
I just had difficulty placing my order... over and over, deleting items, adding items to equal $50 so I could use my gift card. Then when I got the order down in price, I had to add the shipping charge that I didn't expect to be so much. So I had to put stuff back in my wishlist again, and again. Just a real pain trying to order my stuff in the wishlist. Then I had to add some stuff in my wishlist to equal under $50, then the shipping became a problem again. So, the heck with it, I just used my bank card. And please delete Margie Husner (spelling is probably incorrect because I can't go back in to the shipping fees). I know longer need that in my addresses.
Shipping charges are awful high for some of the CD's. Better return policy for CD's bought as gifts.
DISCOUNTS COULD BE BETTER
Fortunate to find hard to locate books. Various editions available that are cost effective. Books, though used, are in excellent condition. The discount codes could be better though.
You can find any book you are looking for. And everything is such a good price. And the books that I have ordered have always been in great condition.
Alibris is a web site that I've searched for books for many years. I'm glad they have stayed in business so that I can refer them to friends!
Alibris is my go-to source of books. Past history of shipments ALWAYS arrive in very good condition.!
You are my first stop when purchasing books that I can't find at my local independent bookstore. I always find what I need and more!
Always what I'm searching, always unbelievably low prices, You are always my first stop for books!
Thank you for being here. We shop for books at the Tattered Cover in Denver and are glad there is another online alternative to book besides Amazon.
Often get stuck at checkout; had to re-sign in several times to have it proceed. PS Why must I agree to have this posted? Do you want feedback or not...
So far, shopping on Alibris, is more pleasurable than having lunch with Scarlett Johansson at Nepenthe in Big Sur in which she has offered to pick up the tab but I have overruled her.
Alibris is to book buying as Montmartre is to Paris, the best of the best.
Checkout at Alibris is always easy. I'd like to see more books eligible for free shipping, but that's just me, a retiree on a fixed income.
Easy search engine to find the books you want. Clear indication of book condition. Great prices for books that you read once or use for a lifetime
Awesome service, prices and selection. I have bought books before from you and they have all come in quick and in excellent packaging/condition.
Excellent Price and great editable cart to save more money.
Even without all the two-factor crap, the payment process took literally 20-25 steps to get through PayPal and Alibris. Next time, if there is a next time, I'll just pay with a credit card.
I wanted the full size edition, not the book club edition. I guess I should have been more careful. You don't include a return address.

Love your books! One problem arose; suggested replacement by the value optimizer had one big error,
A replacement from a different author/different book
Mmmm why do i have to do this certainly would rather be reading a book right now. Thank you for sending the books that i paid for and for having the books that we like on your website.
Alibris is one of the best online bookstores. Their selection and prices of new and used books is hard to beat, and their recommendations are usually spot on.
Having an issue with feedback in sound, but intermittently. Not sure what to make of that. There is something loose inside the amp that rattles around, but seems to work fine.
