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 easy to navigate and a great variety of books!
Thank you for providing this service to small book sellers!
Old-school, hardcopy, flip and highlight the pages. This is the future when the digital, e-society eclipses.
Several times when I marked books foot be added to my cart they did not appear, or disappeared later. Each listing should be accompanied by a table of contents, especially the anthology type of readers. It's frustration to stab in the dark as to what the students will be reading, or if they will be reading what they have already read. I would like to be able to split my order tointo various mailing addresses.
When I somehow ordered 2 and when I hit revise order it wouldn't let me go to just 1 so I had to end order and reorder 1
Excellent, as always. Would be nice if shipping were visible when selecting books, but this is not a big deal.
I really like the ease of finding what I am looking and ordering the item.
Terrific selection and ease of ordering. If you need books of any genre, order from this site.
As always, you have what I was looking for and easy checkout, all for a good price.
Don't see why you charge the same price on every dvd, even when buying several at a time. Combined shipping should be less. If I come back, I will buy one at a time.
Very easy to find what I was looking for. Checkout and payment was very easy.
Quick and easy to find a book thats been sold out everywhere
Not bad just hope all three volumes show up ive had a very bad experience with amazon
Alibris has been working this search for me for a year now - and while i think i'm paying a lot for this book (especially sight unseen), i'm hopeful the book will arrive within the timeframe estimated and in good condition - i've been disappointed a lot lately, but i'd love to give alibris five stars if i can/when i receive the package - thanks
Great service. Good shipping speed. Good customer service. And NOT Amazon! Thumbs up!
There are many great titles at really good prices. I was a bit confused about the Free shipping and how the price of shipping went up and down during checkout. I almost canceled my order.
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.
