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 have ordered this novel 4 times now, and each time I receive an email in a couple of days that says the order has been cancelled. I'm thinking this may be because I am shipping the book to a friend who happens to be in a prison. What am I missing? I have been in contact with your customer service, and the advice is to contact the seller in advance and then ask if the mail to prisons, but that is harder than one might think, becasue it's not automatically transparent which book, in a long list, I have ordered. The point is that if there is something I don't understand about book sellers being reluctant to mail to prisons, then I could end up have a series of contacts with sellers over the course of a month or more.
After the first couple of disks, the beginning of each new disk stuttered and took minutes to get thru but eventually i could watch the main program.
Easy to understand web site and have the item that I wished to purchase.
An excellent site and very easy to navigate to complete my purchase.
Easy site to use, great price on the book I was looking for. Great place for hard to find books
Great choice of books. You have great prices. I will definitely be back to buy other books. It's hard at my age to buy books because of the cost.
It has been easy to use, and there is a good selection of books. I'm using it to find seminary books.
Fast, quality service. I received my order rather quickly and my books are in great condition.
It took me numerous attempts today to access your site for the final steps of this order.
Excellent! I found a very good selection at reasonable prices.
Easy to use web site and pleasantly addictive shopping experience.
Great prices, well packaged, great variety! Love that I can get new and used books!
They had the books I wanted at a great price, and shipped quickly. Also, the books were in very good condition, better than described. I am overall very happy.
The process was painless and efficient and easy to navigate.
I LOVE British movies, off-beat 60s movies, strange stories and funny people. Alibris offers movies I can't find anywhere else. I live in a VERY isolated area... my connection with Alibris keeps me sane and entertained. Keeps me off the highways and my brain active. Makes for a VERY happy life. THANKS!
Shipping was high. I had to use several different sellers just to get 5 of the same book.
Good condition dvds, played well, great value, exactly what I ordered
Great service for an excellent product. We order again from this business.
Love Alibris! Best book store ever... massive selection & quick service.
I have purchased books from Alibris for around 10+ years. They always have an amazing selection on many topics. The ordering is always smooth and the books arrive fairly swiftly. What's not to love?
Found what I was looking for! I'm guest reader for kindergarten, and thus was one of my kids favorite book
It was Quick and Easy, with no unnecessary and annoying side-quests to enter extra codes, and without having to navigate multiple irrelevant web pages to find what I was looking for.
Good description of products! Excellent service and fair pricing
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.
