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 am a frequent buyer of used books on this site. Very pleased with the prices and the condition of these books.
Problem with entering the new password. Took 3 times to get it accepted
Cancelled my order, but getting another copy was a breeze. Thanks
Checkout was a little cumbersome as autofill put a space behind VA and system would not accept more than a 2 letter state. Kind of hard to visualize the additional space
Lets see if I even get my order. Im new to this site. Thank you.
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.
