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.

Easy to shop and always a quality books and service
I am sending this order directly to my brother, but I would feel more comfortable if your form also asked for my name and address, in the event of any complications. Thanks.

Good prices, reliable, and a vast selection of college books.
Great experience and much cheaper than other sites!
Had exactly what I needed and for a price that was reasonable.
So incredibly happy to have an alternative to the mammon-greedy empire that is Amazon. So far I've been able to find everything I am looking for here on Alibris. Keep up the good work!
Pretty decent service, quick, easy and fast email confirmation. The shipping costs are high, but during a pandemic that's hardly unexpected.
It's so easy and fast to find the book I'm looking for.
I received my book in a flimsy plastic bag and opened it to find a large dent/tear in the hardcover. But to return a damaged item, for which the seller is at fault, the customer is responsible for return shipping. Most companies will give a free return for returns due to damage, and only charge return shipping if you've just changed your mind. When I contacted customer service about this, they said they'd give me a $3 coupon after I return to "offset" the shipping costs, which is a pathetic consolation, especially considering this experience has convinced me not to use this company again.
Shopping was easy. Delivery and condition of item yet to be seen.
Great website, easy to see all choices and condition of books.
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.
