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.

All desired info, such as edition, seller location, & shipping times, was available & easy to find.
Very easy to navigate your site & find exactly what I am looking for.
I enjoyed the ease and options I was given to choose from
Not Convenient to register account and change billing address
Thank you for using paypal and not requiring me to have an account!
The page was easy to look through, and the book sold itself by the pictures.
Shipping prices are unfortunate. :/ Quickly removed other items from my cart due to the huge jump in price.
This is the book I'm looking for. Thanks, can wait to put my eyes on it
Hard to find a specific book through a search. My cart disappeared when I reset my password (understandable), but I couldn't find the exact books in the cart by searching seller and condition in addition to title and author.
A book seller had a rating of 3 out of 5 stars. I tried to view their feedback and comments from buyers but the seller had hidden them where they could not be viewed. Alibris should not allow buyer feedback to be hidden by the seller!
So far, so good. This is my first order and I will have to see how long it takes to arrive and if the condition is as described.
Love being able to find books that I am looking for
I love being able to shop books from home. Alibris makes it easy.
My cart was full and I was ready to check out, I signed in and my cart was empty. If someone has items in their cart they should be able to sign in and not get their cart emptied.
Good prices, excellent selection. Easy to find description for different qualities.
Good prices, good search engine, easy to navigate book selection. I will be sure to come back for all my book needs, and recommend it to friends!

Alibris is legendary if you are a book lover you will find it here.
Thank you one of easiest transactions I've seen in a while!
I am a long-standing Alibris customer. Today's experience was excellent, as they all are.
Difficult to see what the differences were between the different sellers
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.
Answer: Hi Dennis, That depends on where the seller is located and where your deliver address is as well. Generally, shipments within the States are delivered within a week or so, though holiday shipping might slow down a bit. If you send us the details with your order number in an email to info@alibris.com we can look into the specifics for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: Hi Valerie, If you have had a problem with your Visa or PayPal transactions on our site, please let us know the details at info@ailbris.com so that we can investigate for you. Thank you for your question. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: HI Zoila, Delivery timeframes within the States are usually between 3 and 8 days, but it depends on where the seller is that is shipping the item to you. If you have already placed an order, please contact us at info@alibris.com with your order details and we can investigate for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
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.
