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.

My go-to place for books. Way, way too many books, I'm afraid!
Great place to satisfy my need for books, the more obscure the better able Alibris is successful
I tried to order this book previously but included the wrong address. I got in touch with the original seller but the seller would not accommodate the correct address.
Thanks for the reminder to finish the order... and thanks for storing my shipping info but not my payment info
Easy to find my desired book and very affordable. Thank you.
Can always find a book I want to read. Website is user friendly. Bargains galore.
Thank you.
Love this site for the bargains and the broad selection. Thank you.
I have been looking for over a year for this one book and could not find it anywhere. I used the find book feature and they sent me a notification when they found a copy of the book. I am so happy.
I have never had any problems with any of my orders. They arrived timely and as stated in ads. Wish shipping was a little cheaper
Some pages seemed to reload instead of moving smoothly to the next step, but overall a good experience.
Upon checkout, I had to go back to see where the item was shipping from, and it would have been helpful to have this information when I hit the purchase button. Otherwise intuitive ordering.
Great selection of books on my subject of interest
Found the book I wanted at the best price online! Quick and easy checkout.
I live in Dorchester County; the tax rate here is 7%. You charged me the Charleston County rate of 9%.
I have been satisfied with the books and quick service I have received with past purchases.
Quick and reliable. I've enjoyed the books I've purchased.
Always find what i want. Quick easy shopping. Always pleased with condition of books i order here.

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.
