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.

I would have purchased an additional $40 to get to the next discount level, but there was no way to add to the order, even before I placed it.
First purchase confusing coupon offers but even after email sign up, changed criteria. Ordered anyway but seems purposely deceptive? Shown $5; 15, etc., ribbon but latest now must spend 300
Where is my measley $5 for email submission?
I never have a chance to review my order. I wanted this sent to someone as a gift and I never had a chance to review and edit or confirm the info. I like your website but several times now, I've had to immediately cancel an order because it was a duplicate when I was trying to get more info on the cost of shipping or where it was coming from or anything. Somehow I end up ordering instead of viewing the order. Other than that I love your service!
Wonderful choices on the book I need for my book club
User friendly. Always leave 4 stars as there always room for improvements :)
Very simple. Looking forward to my purchase. Thanks.
Easy to find the book I wanted. Helpful description of condition.
Easy to find the book I wanted, and lots of choice about price, condition, shipping.
Can navigate windows, find various versions of books, sort by price, etc. easily. Good descriptions of book condition. Good coupons.
Website acted weird. I ordered as a guest, not login to account, then selected item, then specified the recipient and mailing address. Then it tried to make me create an account and put in mailing address again. Rather than that, I went "back" a couple screens and got to payment screen and it allowed me to order without setting up an account. This is a one-time gift so I didn't want recipient's address to be my permanent address.
Check out was easy without the roadblock of incorrect passwords.
Everything was quick and easy. I am a happy customer.
Simple and easy to order but more information about product would have been nice.
Purchasing the book seemed like a simple process. Now comes the fun part to see when I get the book.
Without problem! I tried another bookseller, was made to create an account, but then was blocked from being able to!
Great selection with easy, smooth process, exceptional every time!
First time ordering, smooth and easy. Hopeful on quality!
Some of your sellers are getting very lax on the quality of the books they ship out. A VERY GOOD, needs to be very good and not caked with dirt so they are skipping the gradings all together and anything that is not new, they slap on a vg.
Second time this has happened in two weeks. Sellers need to look at the sides for stains, mildew, etc BEFORE grading!
I really like how you don't save my info that can't be tracked that was nice of you.
Good response to search, easy to shop among offerings
I love Alibris so much! I've bought so many books from this website!
So far it's been a good shopping experience. I almost bought this for more money and not even a hard copy only to download
I was thrilled to find this book at such a reasonable cost.
