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.

Good selection and prices. Consolidated shipping from same seller should be cheaper!
Your price changed from 7.31 to 8.08 to 8.12 since I added to my cart & I had to keep putting my card code several times because it wasn't able to process! I wouldn't want to purchase if I had a choice!
Fast, easy to read, great selection of books! I like that you had exactly what I am looking for!
The prices were reasonable for the books I was looking. I plan to give them as gifts for Christmas. Great savings.
Great selection, good prices. Don't have much more to add to that, but if you insist, I guess I'd say that I've really never had a problem.
Buenas condiciones y buenas precio. Me ha servido mucho para estudiar, asi que me sir to satisfecha con mi compra.
Your cart page leaves a lot to be desired. I kept going back to the cart because I added the same book to my cart twice by mistake. It took a couple of tried to realize I needed to scroll down to see the contents of my cart and not just the box with the total and option to enter a coupon. You may want to review!
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.

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.
