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.

Good website design for shopping and sending a gift elsewhere.
Web site design doesn't consider giving adequate information on the publisher not just the writer/editor. Can't get back and forth between card and information page with ease. It's a mess.
Easy to shop. Wish you'd indicate the date of publication clearly.
Is there any way I can ship a book as a gift? Perhaps with an extra charge?

Found the book I sought at such a great price that I didn't mind the shipping cost.
Easy to search, find, and order books on this site.
Lots of sellers to choose from with more detailed descriptions of books' condition than available on Amazon
I like references to possible further reading
Love the recommendations for further reading
Whenever I find a book hat someone else has and I want it, Alibris is where I go to find it and ALWAYS find it. Great price, Fantastic quality!
I was introduced to Alibris from a friend years ago and I love the quality of the books I order and the ease in ordering.
I have loved shopping Alibris books for years. Best deal ever for good quality used books.
I like having different choices on ways I can pay.
The website is nicely organized and it's easy to find the exact book I was looking for.
I tried two credit cards with plenty of 'room' on them, and your response was to 'kick it back.' The third card was successful.
No problems both in selecting books and placing orders
Had ordered the item rated very good for a good price. While I had to change my password, that order disappeared...

Been a not-often-enough customer here for a while... trying to kick up my reading game. :) always a pleasure to shop here
Easy to use and wide selection. Never disappointed.
Check out was a little confusing to navigate, i.e. It took a few tries to find and change shipping address for the first in recent checkout times.
Otherwise I love your book selection. Thanks!
Could not figure out how to remove incorrect shipping address as i was reluctant to move forward and to next page thinking I'd be stuck placing an order and errantly shipping to what Alibris had on file. Once continuing I learned i could make change. Better change occurs on same page as posted shipping address.
I have been looking for this volume for over 40 years to complete a set from my great-grandfather. At last I found the missing volume. Hooray!
Bibles are a non-taxablemitem and you keep charging sales tax. PLEASE STOP!
I love this site for books I can't find elsewhere. My experience with Alibris is one of total satisfaction!
I always buy here when I'm looking for hard to get or out of print books. Great selections, and great experience every time!
I've had very little to complain about shopping alibris
I have been 95% pleased with my shopping via alibris over many years now...
My shopping experience was quick, simple and easy.
Straightforward, simple, no bs. Very user friendly interface. Thank you!
Would like shipping to be included in price of book.
Thank you very easy to order & take payment. Nice selection of book!
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.
