Book was in excellent condition, packaged in a sturdy sealed cardboard packet. Shipping was by USPS Media Mail, so it isn't fast but it's cheap. Very easy web checkout. I've ordered from Alibris many times, always excellent!
I had ordered a book and paid for it but apparently the book was unavailable by the time I placed my order. Alibris immediately sent me a message informing me as such and had already placed another copy in my cart for my approval and also refunded me for the first book. I love the efficiency!
Website is easy to navigate and offers clear options and details about every book and their condition. Received in timely fashion and the book condition was as described. The price was the best I found.
I tried to just sign in as a guest but had to change emails 3 times. Please just let someone buy their books and go. How can I expedite shipping. One book is for a birthday on March 13th. That's 6 days away. The book is on Society justice and shipping costs as much as the book. Any chance of it getting here by March 12th?
I did not receive an email confirmation at the time of my order. I sent a message requesting an email confirmation of my order, but never heard back. My order did arrive in a timely fashion. The jewel case of one CD was significantly cracked on front and back..
Wonderful, the t shirts were shown beautifully. The only thing that I would suggest is that you put somewhere that these are man size t shirts. I ordered what I usually wear in a women's size, but the t shirt was really in a man's size.
I have always had success when shopping for books with Alibris. I enjoy the discounted prices for quality books. Easy to look titles up, easy to place the orders & easy to pay. I highly recommend this company.
Good website that was well reviewed. Found the book we needed with a good description of the condition. Ordering was quick and easy. Delivery was quicker than anticipated. The book was in great condition (better than described). Overall good experience
I just now received my book. But got this email prior asking me if I had received it. It would help if you indicate which book is purchased in the email when requesting information from a customer because I order many books from many places and had to find out which book this was. Yes the service always has been great. Thank you.
I am happy with my recent experience purchasing a book through Alibris. The product selection was excellent, the price was competitive, the book was well-packaged, and it arrived quickly.
I will return to Alibris to search for my next book.
This is the first time purchase through Alibris. There were four books, all older editions. All four came through in good condition as shown & described. Shipping time was very good. Pricing was good. Follow up & tracking were good.
Good condition, feels like it was loved by the previous owner. :) no rips or major tears
I was skeptical because it was so cheap, but I was happily surprised by the condition and overall quality of the book
The book was said to be "new", and I would agree it was. It was in perfect condition. I was pleased as this book is out of print and so is difficult to find in pristine shape. I would definitely order from the seller again.
Purchased Sir Orfeo from Lumahai Books listed in VG condition/Dust Jacket Good condition. If actual condition matches description, this will be a successful purchase. It is too early for a review/feedback.
I wanted to buy chess books for families to help their kids. I'm a chess teacher. I was able to buy multiple copies of the books that helped me gain a wide understanding of the history of chess, and the best ways to approach learning.
Placed my order Feb 28 and received it March 24. Shipping was from the US to Canada but was still longer than expected. The book itself is exactly as described and is in excellent condition for a used book (like new). The price was very reasonable. Overall happy with my purchase.
I was disappointed in the condition of the book. The cover immediately tore at the bottom. The cover and several first pages were creased. Many pages throughout were underlined in pink or yellow markers. There were several pages with comments written in ink or pink marker. The book was very worn.
Removal of shipping cost was not clear prior to final page - wasn't sure to continue. However, client Service responded quickly to clarify problem. Also unable to change shipping address to match address of new credit card with wife's name. We have same mailing address.
The delivery and the packaging were good. If u are looking for the latest books, the price plus the $5 delivery can be the same as the original price. But if not u might get some books cheap and make sure to select the book according to the description given.
Delivery time was reasonable. Book was described as above average however the book I received had numerous page markings (underlines, notes and circles) and the spine is in poor condition (separating from the folio). Will make sure that I don't select Half Priced Books again.
This book has been out of print for a while and I have been searching everywhere for a physical copy. Having that has made me very happy. It was more than I wanted to pay, but as hard as it was to find, it was reasonable.
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.

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.
