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.

Checked PayPal for payment, provided info requested, and could not pay. Had to re-order with VISA.
PayPal is very easy on other sites.
Very helpful website. The books I am looking for at very good prices.
Alibris has the books I want at very reasonable prices. Web site is very easy to use.
I find the Alibris website very easy to use. I shop for books that appeal to a very narrow audience. Alibris helps me find the books I want at very favorable price and shipping cost.
Alfred Trevino & I use this site to buy most of our books and some dvds. It is very easy to use for older people.
Used to use Alibris a lot years ago, first time back in quite awhile.
Okay so far, but the postage was a bit of a jolt, I admit.
So far, so good: the book is on its way. My bookseller will be surprised.
I love Alibris for many years. I can always find what I'm looking for here.
Good but when I had to do the whole update password procedure it emptied my shopping cart and I had to start over.
There was no place to indicate to recipient of the book that it is a gift from me.
On Alibris I find books I cannot locate anywhere else, and the search is simple, I just type in the titles.
I try not to buy books very often, but when I do, Alibris is my first stop because of the range of titles and authors on the site.
Had no problem finding what I was after. Quick & easy!
Thanks, folks.
My 2nd time to order a book from Alibris. The first time, another place sent me to Alibris and it was on time, had a good cost and arrived on tame so I'm trying again.
Had my shopping done. Came back to make order and it had disappeared?
I'd forgotten Thrift Books until a cousin reminded me. Delighted she did. Good service, more books!
I buy a lot of fashion coffee table books and its great to not always have to pay cover price
Very good price for this Karen Hesse hardcover book in fine condition
Good books, good prices from Alibris!
Excellent on-line setup and intuitive instructions.
Always like the Alibris selection. Like the new finder that helps keep costs down.
Simple process, well stocked bookstore, I like shopping here.
I can find about half the books I need at Alibris. The service is good, I will continue shopping with you as time goes by.
Excellent service and a good selection of fine books, even if they are out of print. Keep up the good work.
Very good service, I will continue shopping my books with you.
I WANTED THE DVD OF PRETTY WOMAN BUT WHEN IT WAS ON
MY ORDER ITEM DID NOT SAY IF IT WAS A DVD OR NOT...MAYBE
U COULD LOOK AT THAT ITEM AND CORRECT WHAT IT IS DVD
VHS OR TAPE...THANKS
Application indicates my basket would be maintained for 12 hours, two hours later it was empty. VERY frustrating. Also I specified free shipping only but one the chosen books added an additional fee, BAD
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.

Generally, shipments within the States are delivered within a week or so, though holiday shipping might slow down a bit. 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 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.

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.
