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.

Email offered a coupon "Weekend Sale | $15 Coupon + Free Shipping, Edward" but I could find no way to retrieve the code. Feels like bate and switch.
Friendly, easy to follow. However I understood there were no shipping charges, yet I paid for shipping.
Easy to scroll through books. Search entered brought up the category I was looking for
Reasonable pricing! Purchased from Alibris before and was pleased!
I tried to register for a new account w you, and after I entered my password and confirmed it, suddenly I was someplace else; and I couldn't get back to registering, so I just ordered the book as a guest.
Good selection of books, reasonably priced. Orders processed in Canadian funds which is a bonus. Thanks
You need to offer coupons that are more realistic--not just to reward those that can order huge amounts of books.
Easy to use! Bought here for a long time and very happy with the service!
This is the fourth copy of The Joy of Home Winemaking I have purchased. I taught and shared with friends and family, but lost my copy in the move. Glad to find it inexpensively here. I plan to make a batch of sparkling Rhubarb with a new friend I have found here in Maine.
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.
