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.

Great way to wait keep searching for a book your interested in.
Liked that it remembered me even though I had not created an account, and prompted me to give the info to set up an account.
Alibris beats Amazon to a pulp, hands down! Great experience. Thank you.
Effortless. Except that for a rare work (in Russian) the search required some thought.
Quite smooth - surprised at how expensive these 2 titles are, but then they are recent works.
I shop often using thriftbooks. They are able to coordinate their sellers to tell me if the same book is available with one of the companies I ordered another book from, lowering the shipping costs for me.
Thank you i had a good experience. Shopping was easy and I hope to receive the order soon.
Alibris has just what I am looking for. No hassle.
So far so good. Let's see when I receive my book. Thank you for making the process easy!

Straightforward, no surprises. Transparent. Easily accomplished.
I love shopping at Alibris! Easy to find anything!
Don't like the automatic filled in check mark to send you coupons etc… it is sneaky. It should be blank and I should be the one to check it. I meant to remove it. Please uncheck it for me. Do not email me promotions coupons marketing stuff
You always have what I'm looking for at a great price (shipping not so much). Thanks,
I found what I was looking for quickly and at a good 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.
