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 fairly easy and there was a good selection.
I found the book I wanted quickly. I got an email about $10 off, though, but I couldn't find a way to use it. I would have purchased more if I could have.
Shipping is too high. I buy online from many vendors. Your shipping fees are high.
Alibris has been wonderful. Books arrive quickly and in excellent condition.
So far Alibris has been a fantastic place to find everything my wife has wanted at prices I can afford!
What a wonderful way to purchase books!
Wonderful. So far so good this is my fourth recent purchase in 1-2 yrs
Excellent descriptions of qualities of books! Thank you
Found interesting books I want to read on a disabled Veterans budget. Hours of reading ahead.
We have ordered books from alibris many times over the years. It's always a good experience.
I cannot view any seller's reviews right now. That makes is difficult to shop and who to buy from.
Love Alibris have been a loyal customer since 2010!
Always can count on Alibris to have any books at the best price. I have been a customer for over 10 years!
Always has the variety and price of all my textbook and reading needs.
I had honestly believe that the subject of DIY pet recipes was kind of obscure, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that I could find so many different books about how to make homemade dog food.
Easy to find authors or subjects that interest me. Have never had an issue with an order.
Coupon offers are misleading, annoying to find out later how much you have to spend.
Makes it ready to buy used books without feeling bad about Amazon labor practices. Watch John Oliver segment on warehouses!.
Wishlist unobtrusive but helpful. I love being able to save books and see them later when I'm buying, but without being nagged. I think you guys hit the golden mean of cyber commerce.
I have been searching for more than 6 months and have finally found a set of Groves Dictionary of Musical Instruments 2nd Ed for a reasonable and fair price. Can't wait to receive them!
Thank you Alibris!
Fist time ordering. I will come back to update my thoughts after receiving my item.
Pretty simple to place an order. Especially grateful I don't need to create a password and username - I could simply place an order without them.
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.

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.
