Alibris Reviews Summary
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.

Almost always find what I'm looking for, quickly and easily. Prices good and normally fast delivery.
Awesome Books. I found exactly what I needed. Thank you!
Your system is difficult to navigate. I almost switched to Amazon out of frustration.
I have been buying books from Alibris for quite some time. I feel like I'm helping small businesses when I purchase my books and I always get used books so I'm helping the environment
I love shopping Alibris. I've always been able to buy the vintage books that I love especially children's literature. I also feel good about buying used books because it helps the environment
My experience is not complete until my order arrives. Please tell free to ask at that time. Thank You
Had an order up on Thrift... couldn't navigate as easily as your site. So I'm here... at Your website is easy to use. Your welcome for the feedback.
It does not cost $55 to ship 10 books. That's a ripoff. I come here to save money. Not be ripped off in shipping.
I'm frugal, which is why I buy used books. I wish there was a function that allowed me to view my wish list and see what collection of books I'm hoping to acquire might be available with discounted shipping if it's shipping form the same place, instead of trying to find additional books I might be interested in from the same seller/store so I can save on shipping. Takes too much time right now.
Easy to order. I'll update my review when my purchase arrives in good condition
Website is easy to navigate, and reasonable prices!
Helpful information about condition of used books. Website easy to use.
I found it difficult to move from screen to screen to find the used soft cover book I wanted by the publisher I wanted.
I found the book without difficulty, and the price was OK tho shipping cost 50c more than Bezos would have charged from the same seller. Your system declined to allow me to register, tho it did accept my order. I hope the book will arrive timely.
Easy to navigate website! Clean & crisp graphic design!
Delighted to find this book here- really appreciate the price: helps me justify buying extra for gifts.
Appreciate that Alibris provides an online shopping resource for independent bookstores.
3 or was it 4 times in had to go back and re-enter all my payment information ALL because auto-fill didn't use the state abbreviation. All that excess was a waste of time, horribly inefficient and a pain in the but. So no more shopping here. KEEP YOUR ProblemS. I just wanted to purchase. I have enough of my own. Just trying to buy a film!
Not be hung up and out like that.
2 BOOKS CHOSEN FOR CANADIAN FAMILY - JUST WHAT I WANTED AND DONE AND DUSTED TO BE ABLE TO SEND THEM TO CANADA
So far it's fine, but I'm a bit worried about how long the book will take to arrive.
As asked, provided my email address for a $5 coupon. $5 coupon was not provided.
Had rare books I needed. Was able to find quickly.
