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.

I love that I can find out of print books through alibris for amazingly low prices.
Well i'm glad i eventually saved money on shipping, but initially it said if i signed up for my email i would recieve 5$ off but i gave my email and checked my inbox and nothing showed up..
I enjoyed being able to buy a book I've been looking at for a while from a Michigan-based business.
Good selection. Had to back off because of shipping charges...
So far so good, easy, fast, just hopping to receive my item
Took four attempts to check out - kept getting error message and had to start over again. Could not check out as guest - had to register an account - don't want an account, i just wanted to buy the book
This is my first time using alibris. My expeience was satisfactory. I will wait to see how long it takes for me to receive my book.
I found some good books at reasonable price, but I was not able to find all the books that I wanted.
When I wanted to pay with another card with my husband's name I couldn't find a way to add a new card, they must correct this. Thanks
Easy to find the book I was searching for. Good price and easy check out. Thank you.
I just recently an email that claimed I would get a five dollar discount if I used the code 5FALL 21. I didn't receive a discount.
Found the book I wanted but the email discount doesn't bother to tell you it has a $50 minimum purchase until you sign up.
I've been purchasing books for about 5 years. No problem ever.
It was very clear and easy to create my account and complete my first purchase.
Site is easy to navigate. I appreciate the different types of books I can choose from (new, used, hardcover, paperback, etc.).
Easy, but i think the shipping could be a little cheaper
Quick and easy, lots of books available at great prices.
I love being able to find used books, but I wish the descriptions were less "drop down menu" repetitive and more accurate to each book. When I look for used books that I plan to use for research or writing, I want to know if there is highlighting &/or writing on the pages. If it is a book for fun, I want to know how bad the spine is. A little more detail would be fabulous.
It was easy and I was able to find books I have been looking for USED fairly easily. I just wish that there was more options for free or reduced shipping. Research is expensive enough.
This has to be the easiest checkout pages I have ever used. Prices are very good, too.
Easy and convenient with a huge selection of books and dvds.
