Alibris Reviews Summary
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.

Easy purchase system and good price for a hard to come by book.
Easy to navigate the site and lots of hard-to-find items
Had a bit of trouble since I did not find a place to sign up, or establish an account. When I filled out for as a GUEST then I could continue. So where does someone register or Create An Account, one has to wait until this last page? Poor design.
The needed information was clear and easy to check or UNcheck as it were. I did not feel like something was trying to get one past me.
Thank You
Easy shopping all the way & great products from great sellers!
Found some of what I was looking for. Easy to shop & quick check out.
Easy shopping. Great selection of books. Can always find what I am looking for.
Thanks so much for locating this out of print book!
I love alibris! If i can't support my library's "yellow barn" i'll always shop here!
It was easy to shop for textbooks and I appreciate your prices
This is my first time using this site for myself. I am pleased to find the reading material I needed.
Very easy to navigate website easy to purchase from
First time ordering from here., i'll follow up once the book arrives..
Add a filter to select by shipper/vendor for used books
Bought less than the shipping cost, wish I could get the shipping cheaper!
Quick and easy, and I was able to find exactly what I wanted.
First, it takes forever to scroll thru the list of books per subject, b/c I had no option to select "view more items per page." Second, I wanted, once I was reminded@ shipping, to search by the sellers, once I locked in on a specific purchase... to see what else they had I might like... frustrating back and forth to do that. Third, I finally picked out two hundred dollars of books and realized I needed to sign in. Then? Then once I logged in, and since it turned out I had 2 log ins, I checked them both, THEN my stupid cart did not remember the books I spent 2 hours searching for... and while i was able to use my web history and go back to one of the versions of my cart history, is was not in fact the most recent one. So, that is why you got 2 stars. Otherwise, when I am not frustrated, I highly recommend your site. Except, this is exactly why I just check out as a guest. B/c signing in screws up everything. Sigh.
I've been shopping with Alibris for over 20 years.
