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 chose Alibris because I have had great service in the past.
"When you tear out a man's tongue, you are not proving him a liar, you're only telling the world that you fear what he might say." - George R. R. Martin
Exactly what I was looking for and reasonably priced.
I did not see an "edit" option, The title of this book did NOT say Large Print.
I was almost afraid of ordering. There was a Large Print in the section where
I ordered. If I can find a telephone number to call, I will do so in the morning
So that a regular print will not be sent.
Very Easy to shop. I am hoping the book is in good shape. I generally buy new books not used.
Happy to find the book and have it available. Glad you are there.
Love to buy books for gifts... Alibris gives me the best bang for my buck!
Easy, quick, full supply, many options, wide inventory
Thank you for good price and looking forward to speedy delivery.
Acted like there was a sale, and there was no sale. I guess sale only applied to certain sellers.
You are cheating on state sales tax by charging sales tax on the shipping amount in addition to the book price itself.
Very easy to find and purchase books. Will definitely use in the future.
I like what I find but it's hard to shop one seller to reduce shipping.
Had a little trouble with payment but always able to find what I'm looking for.
I try to find DVD`s from same vendors but selections force me to variable and a few that I have bought from I do not like!
As a merchant and a buyer I find some of your shipping rates too high!
Alibris has always been reliable - prompt shipping & quality items.
Becoming tedious as I have to enter more comments, etc etc etc
This is the only place I come to for books for myself, friends and student. I love supporting small business and Alibris allows that to happen
Easy to find what i need.
Quick response time.
I've been with Alibris for many year and recommend it to everyone I know.
I've never heard of Alibris but we do order many used books.
Just ordered. Easy to order. Will see how long it takes to arrive and what shape the book is in.
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.
