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.

So happy to find the book for my mom's Christmas present. She'll love it.
Shipping costs add substantially to the order now even when multiple books come from same vendor. Also coupon effect is negligible since shipping isn't covered by coupons and but it does substantially increase the book price esp. Since it's gone up.?
Shipping has gone up and is a whopper— really inflated price if it's $4.49 for a single paperback. So with 3 books That came to $8. Something. Charge was Coupons don't seem to apply. Glad now taking PayPal. But Amazon now often has a better price on newer books w prime.
Had to back up in the ordering process to find the place to enter the "Black Friday" deal coupon code.
For a certain period in time it wouldn't accept my card information and o food. The extremely annoying. But other than that the books and selection is all amazing. The website still needs a little help on being user friendly and organization
Nice to be registered and quickly able to find a book. Thank you!
I like Alibris and have bought many books from them.
No problem, decent price. Have used Alibris many times, very good.
Pretty great. Love the optimized shopping cart option.
The website is easy to use and shop with.
Alibris is one of the most customer-friendly sites I have shopped at.
I'm a regular customer for knitting and other needlework books, which can be quite expensive. They have great prices and effiucient service. I highly recommend them.
Be sure to provide a faster way to change shipping address, plus to write a note for books as gifts...
Found exactly what I was looking for at an excellent price. Thank you
Don't understand shipping costs in a multiple book order - it seems unreasonable.
Please let me know the soonest it can ship! I need it asap.
I love being able to support local booksellers (instead of Amazon!), and still get a great price! Thank you Alibris.
Great place to find books and easy check out! Thank you

Alibris is the best absolutely love you guys. Simple UI, straightforward seller options, and shipping consolidation adjustments. When ever I need an odd book I can count Alibris to have it.
I quickly found a book in great condition for an excellent price
I would have liked to hear about the condition of the used cookbook. I hope all the pages are there and that it is doesn't have food splattered all over it...
Easy to navigate, appreciate the discount coupons, great selection!
I really love Alibris for rare and hard-to-find books, plus their site is easy to navigate and I get options on condition and price of each item.
I always appreciate this site - the incredible variety, price options, easy-to-navigate search features, and customer service!
It is easy for me to find specific and unusual books on this site, and the checkout experience is straightforward. Thank you!
I love Alibris. I find books and music that I have wanted for years but been unable to find.
It would be helpful if I could choose to ship to multiple addresses. I frequently order items for friends and loved ones. Due to the pandemic I see them less or not at all. If I could ship directly to them I would order more from Alibris.
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.
