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.

Items as described, quick process, reasonably priced
Easy process, reasonable delivery times, arrives in condition advertised… my go to site for books.
Always receive items in order presented in details within timeframe given at time of order... never a disappointment.
Always have a good experience here... have recommended your site to many people.
This site was easy to look around for what I was looking for.
The website need improvement. The $5 discount code BKX545 did not work. Why is shipping so expensive?
It was very difficult to choose which books would be most likely to arrive in time for Christmas. If they don't I will need to mail them to another address.
The shipping will be far more than the value of the books. I was trying to get only books from the adjoining state but I couldn't tell if the books were there in stock or would just be mailed from the east coast and then mailed again making it even longer. In fact...I think I had better cancel and just buy at full price with no shippping from Amazon and have it here for certain. Wait...It's too late to cancel.
Your search engine is bad. I had to use a different search engine to find a book you had listed, but that your own search did not find in your own inventory, even with the author's name and book title.
Alibris is my favorite shopping spot for books, music, and movies.
Alibris is my favorite place to find great books.
I like shopping on Alibris - very user-friendly and a great alternative to Big Box sites.
Easily found the book I wanted to give as a gift, easy to order.
I've found ALL of the books I'm looking for. Great service & shipping!
Great deals! I prefer to buy from booksellers and not Amazon
Great website, although adding books to my wishlist on mobile is very frustrating. I've mentioned it in emails often, I hope it's fixed other wise it would be perfect.
Good shopping experience. The mobile website still lacks the ability to add books directly to my wishlist from the product page.
Great website, simple and effective. Purchasing books has never been easier.
Hard to find classic books available at an affordable price
This was my first time using your website. I'm impressed with the ease of use.
Thank you
I am a frequent buyer from Alibris for all my books. This company is reputable and does its best to ensure that all customers are satisfied with the items purchased.
Don't like that my occupation and phone number appear in the mail address
Easy, quick, and I nearly almost always find precisely what I am looking for at z very reasonable price!
Today's experience has been good so far! My last experience was the first that kind of went sideways and it is still a little sketchy from where sit. However, over time I have been extremely happy with the excellent service from Alibris. My order today is the second attempt to order a particular title and I am assuming that it will go well this time. Thank You!

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.
