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 bought this book as a gift to an inmate at a jail. I can't wait for him to get it. I'm so glad I was able to afford it for him. Thanks.
Easy interface, great prices and quick checkout made the buying process a breeze!
I like this website. I can find books that are hard to find and great prices!
Love this way to support used book stores, and have access to good used books!
Easy to find the books I want. I did realize that an old children's book I have was worth something. Alas, it is so well-used I wouldn't get a cent for it, but the grandkids still love it in spite of its condition.
First of all, you had the titles I wanted! And the checkout was easy, hopefully the shipping will come through timely.
I have always had a good shopping experience with Alibris.
I am very pleased with Alibris. I always find what i'm looking for at very reasonable prices.
I am very pleased with my shopping experience today.
I always have loved alibris for their access to quality used books, either collectible or reference. Thanks for being here!
Aside from being fed up with having to create an individual ' account' and keep track of passwords on every internet consumer web-site these days, good as it gets for saving media from thrift-store dumpsters while supporting independent sellers. I recommend your site to everyone.
Great search engine. Easy access. I look forward to accessing more titles!
I like the simplicity of shopping on the Alibris site.
I like the easiness of using Alibris' website to shop and purchase the books of my interest.
I have ordered many, many books from Alibris since being at home due to the Pandemic during this past year and have had very good service.
All good except I didn't like being told I'd get a coupon and then finding out that it was only if I spent a certain, high amount. Doesn't warm me to Alibris.
I couldn't get an answer to a question - I wanted to send a card with my order and there was no way to do it.
I only buy free shipping! Thank you for continuing to offer this
Love the fact you give PayPal as an option without having to fill out repetitive forms!
Overall enjoyable. Concerned that the site auto logged into my PayPal. Love the selection and quality of books.
Happy that I was able to remove books from my order that ha $7.98 shipping expense.
Could not place one order with multipple shipping addresses so was not able to use coupon, must make separate orders. Otherwise enjoy ability to find good books at good prices.
Thanks, I feel good about your prices and options. I hope your shipping services match as well.!
The experience has been great (I have used the site more than 10 times.) today I didn't like how the page I was looking at (art as experience by John Dewey) initially showed the most expensive versions first, even though this is a thrift book store.
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.
