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.

Very efficient, in balance with the service from alibris. *
So far this site has over delivered. Very well done.
I wish I would have been informed of the shipped charge sooner in the check-out process.
Had the book I was looking for and at a great price.
It would be nice to be able to sort search results alphabetically by title.
Great selection, clear demarcation of prices and condition of books. Very satisfied customer!
You changed something: I used to go to Alibris put in -titel and author and i got the book on screen--NOT ANY MORE- now i have to GOOGLE title etc. to find out if you have the book.
Usually find what i am looking for
Site is easy to use and the choice of books is huge. Prices are as good or better than other similar sites. I will be back here often!
Would be great to have more pictures today, when trying to buy replacement volumes for a Harvard Classics set. But overall: Good, and thanks
I did not like having to put my email in so early in the process of the order--i didn't even get to see the shipping cost, tax cost, and overall total first. I found this to be deterring, annoying, and unnecessary...
I feel shipping is too high when you purposely buy from one book store you should get a better price on shipping. You are making money on shipping because book rate would not be that high.
Great price on a book I was looking for!
The book that I need was easy to find. Quick and easy checkout.
Great lots of bargain will be back for more shopping
I was so happy to see that Alibris notified me of a book I had been searching for. I ordered it right away. The process was quick and straightforward.
Clear, helpful, ready to go. Nice presentation. Thanks
I found the book I was looking for at a good price.
Excellent. Found Texas plaque at a yard sale ($1) that displays the inventors, dates and a sample of each piece of barbed wire. Looking forward to sending it to a dear friend in San Antonio for Christmas, along with this wonderful book. She is the head wrangler for a very popular ranch in Bandera.
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.
