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 love shopping here for books that I can't never seem to find local. Saves time and gas money.
Outstanding! However, on my previous order placed this afternoon for 5 books, shipping should have read $4.49, but instead on several books was $7.98. Why the discrepancy?
My first "Go To" site. Easy, efficient, and it seems they Always have the books I am searching for, with the very best, economical price!
A great price for a book I'm certain I'll refer to again.
Having both the PRICE and the LOCATION of the book means I can choose "closer books". Sometimes my head wants to keep carbon footprint, even for a used book, in check.
Easy purchase. Hope the product is great. If it is, I am doing a Google review.
Consistency of ordering format lends to easy navigation while ordering.
What I want, when I want. Accessible and easy to navigate.
Didn't have to jump through any hoops. No pop-ups. Just a simple check out. THANKS
It's been pretty good so far. I'd really recommend you guys develop an app so we wouldn't have to use a website.
The website is easy to use and prices seem fair/good!
Good information about new and used options, and the various editions available. Nice to see the choice of several book stores.
Search for what I wanted was quick and easy. This is a well organized site.
Excellent. Always have what I am looking for and the descriptions have always matched the item as far as the quality of the book.
Alibris is the first place I go for used books. Always seem to have what I'm looking for. The descriptions of the books match what I get.
So far ordering site very helpful and user friendly.
My second order in one day & I am very pleased! Great selection & better prices, Alibris can't be beat.
Thank you for having the books that I most want to read at great prices!
Had hard time with copy and paste of pw rest. Print to close together need space
Quick checkout was great. Best quality book should be listed first instead, sort was by lowest price.
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.
