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.

Thanks for helping me be able to find out of print copies of books I love!
Very easy to buy. I found everything I was looking for.
Great price, quality book, fine website, easy checkout. What's not to like?
So glad to find whale shark books for a granddaughter who swam with them this summer.
Very quick and I always find whatever I need very easy.
Good selection and great prices. I will shop here again.
I've purchased through Alibris at least a half-dozen times. Easy to order, great prices, and quick processing.
I wanted to order a two volume set. No problem! Alibris treated me right.
When I logged in, I lost all items in my cart. That should not happen.
Love your store... I can always find the books I'm looking for and your prices are amazing!
First time and I'll check the order once received! Easy set up so far.
Very easy ordering process with many options on purchase item.
Love finding bargain prices for my book club books.
Quick search for book, with several options. Always a reliable source for books needed for a book club!
It was easy to search and found the book I was interested in. I'm a fan of buying books on this site.
It's always great to find a used book I am interested in at Alibris for such a huge savings over new. I still prefer a real book in my hands over an electronic one.
It is easy to search Alibris for a specific book. Descriptions are always accurate. Shipping is dependable. I've collected many used books for my art library on this site.
I selected a book to buy but had not logged in. When I did log in, my book was not in my cart. When i tried to put the book I had selected in the cart, I was told the book was not available--I would guess bc I myself had already tried to order it and thus the system thought it was already being bought. So if I had not logged in, I could have bought it immediately as a guest. Now it's in some weird limbo.
The shopping experience was quick and straight forward
Found a book 50% cheaper than Amazon. Plus an independent bookseller. That's a win win in my book. Hopefully it's the book I need for class, sure looks like it.
I have been completely satisfied. This is the best site to get all my books! Great prices, great quality! I love Alibris!
Every time I have received anything from you it has always been in excellent condition and fast shipping at a great price! Even with the item said good condition, I have even referred many of my friends to you!
It always seems so simple to order from your company.
Always seem to have the books I am looking to find.
They had what I want at a good price. I'm happy (as long as it arrives).
Found the product I was looking for. Order went smoothly so far.
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.
