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.

Website is always easy to negotiate and and the prices are right.
Very easy to make a purchase. Easy site to navigate.
Easy, quick and found what I was looking fro ate a great price.
The site deleted my cart due to an error and forced me to reselect the books I want to order. I had a larger order of ~23 books so it was not fun to go through again.
I found exactly what I needed at an amazing price. Thanks Alibris!
This is a great site that always has rare manga that I'm looking for.
I have been able to find so many rare, hard to find manga. This is a great site!
I love Alibris and buying used books from small independently owned bookstores. Thanks much!
I've ordered from your company 3 times. So far so good!
Very smooth ordering process. Hope this isn't to good to be true.
Alibris has a great selection of books at the best prices
Pretty straightforward. The website works well in high contrast dark mode.
Easy shopping with good wide selections and prices.
Easy orders and very inexpensive materials. Thanks
Ordering was super quick and easy, and for a great price.
Shopping was quick and easy, very pleased with everything.
Shopping here was quick and easy, I found exactly what I was looking for.
I found most of the books I looked for and some had free shipping.
Ridiculous website... no button to return to shopping when obstacles arose during checkout. Limited descriptions on the books and small numbers of books on the subject.
Always seem to have what I need at a very reasonable price.
These 3 titles originally were authored by Colonel Colin McVeagh Gubbins, in 1938 or 1939. In that Day, the British government fully expected to be defending London, from German invaders, in the streets thereof. In fact, the book, How to Use High Explosives, was originally entitled, "The Housewife's ABC of Homemade Explosives". I almost did not find the changed titles, or changed author.
Just a note so you're aware this website issue exists: I had books saved to my basket, but upon logging in to my alibris account at checkout the basket disappeared. But it seems like the site still saved the original basket book listings in its cache, so the books I wanted to pick up were gone from the listing due to being held by the pre-login guest basket.
It was easy to find a book that I was looking for. All the information about price of the book and shipping were very clear. A good experience
Blessed are they who always forge a path for which TRUTH can be dispensed! Randall Scott Story 2022 August 1
Customer service is awesome as usual, nice to see that some businesses remain unchanged by the Globalist witch oven and its man made pandemic :) Thank you
Very good. However, I'm still not sure how to get free shipping when a book is eligible?
I had a good shopping experience.
I came looking for a specific cookbook and the recommended books at the bottom were right on point as they displayed books I had been looking for as well and they had a low price.
I came for one book and ended up buying four because of the low prices.
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.
