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.

Found what I was looking for@ a great price and check out was quick.
Very easy to find the book that I was looking for, and there were several options for sellers near my area.
Typically, I receive great service from Alibris although it sometimes takes a fair bit longer than expected for the books to arrive. My biggest difficulty is that I often want out of print and old books that nobody has!
Great! I most always find the book Im looking for for a great price!
I like shopping on this site because I can usually find what I'm looking for at a good price!
I'm pleased with the prices on books I buy, very affordable!
I have a $20.00 savings from Alibris and even tho I clicked and went through there to order I don't see where it added that on and credited my order. I also lost my entire shopping cart this time and had to go back and start all over. That's a lot of work and time involved! Very frustrating this time.
Always an easy shopping experience as well as fast delivery. I have never had a problem ordering from Alibris and it's always my go-to
Hi quick and easy just the way I like it I'm happy Egyptian and I have a Cartouche ring that has the hieroglyphics translated into American numbers and or letters and people say oh you can just get that online oh no you can't you have to go to the main source and I'm so glad I found you thank you God bless
Paul Doherty has written a great many books, fiction and non-fiction. He has several series in his fiction writings, many of which are in the same time period. Separating the fiction into the various series would make it easier to purchase the novels in the correct order and with the correct characters
Need ability to go back and forth checking order and continuing to shop.
First time I ordered I had set up an account and was not given any information it did not setup. I could not find it with this current order so had to re-create it.
I wanted to irder more than 1 copy but could not find sn ootion to do that.
Hope the service of my order is equal to the shopping experience.
Easy, except for all the account stuff I have to sign up for...
There are many options to choose from. Very pleased with selection.
Easy to use. I'm happy to have a copy of this book.

Your service and the quality of your books are first rate. I prefer supporting independent bookstores to big chains.
Alibris is reliable, has low prices, ships promptly, and supports independent bookstores.
The pop-ups! I felt rushed.
This isn't a fast-food joint.
Hoping that my next book will be of the same great quality as the previous ones!
First used book arrived in great condition. Hoping for a similar experience with the second book I just ordered.
Love ordering, find what i want easily! Thank you!

Had a hard time finding this book at a reasonable price. Yours was the most reasonable I could find.
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.
