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 don't get on here a lot, but love Alibris.
Usually, free shipping at Amazon grabs my attention. But you had exactly what I hoped to find and the book + shipping still came in better than Amazon. Thanks for being awesome!
Have been using alibris for a couple of years now and have had great success finding quality used books while supporting used book dealers throughout the country.
Like the idea of cart optimization, but I would also be interested in a similar function that identifies closer options for purchase to reduce overall shipping resources required.

Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.

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.
