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.

It was a bit challenging figuring out at what point in the order I could upgrade the shipping. Otherwise the purchase went very smoothly!
Prices were so good! Locating the book I needed was so easy!
I almost always find what I'm looking for at a reasonable price. Thank you.
First.it told me no shipping charges if standard 3-5 days then it charged me at checkout
Quickly able to limit search for newest available edition
All the different and expensive shipping charges can be confusing but thanks to cart optimizer for helping figure it out!
I discovered this website years ago on a local PBS channel. I have never been disappointed with my product or the delivery time. Thanks Alibris!
Was great I used to use this company years ago and found that a few of the books were not available on amazon so this will be my number one go to for books again
Very easy to navigate your site and purchase, thank you!
Thanks for being there to provide this service. I use you every semester and really appreciate your help!
I wish shipping was not expensive. There should be a reduction when ordering from same seller
Website and pay was easy to navigate. Thanks for that.
Got me something that has eluded me for quite awhile.
The variety and low cost brings me back time and time again.
Seems unfair to offer a coupon for signing up and then demand a $50 order to use it.
It's interesting that the seller and a book dealer are associated with the item for sale.
Good, thorough search and options. Could not be easier!
Great at locating almost any book ever written along with multiple spending choices.
I am just delighted by the variety of books available thanks to Alibris. I have been a happy customer for 23 years.
Do be prepared to wait 2 to 3 weeks for shipments as books are sent via Media Mail - but that is what helps keep the costs down.
Never heard of ya'll. So we will see how it is when I receive this item.
Beautiful care in packaging for shipping. Much appreciated.
The price optimization feature saves significant $$ on shipping costs!
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.
