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.

First time using it alibis.com. So far, so good. I do despise being FORCED TO TYPE A 50+ character review. I didn't sign up for an English ESSAY EXAM.
I purchase from Alibris whenever I can. It is a wonderful bookshop.
Long time shopper. The first place I go to when looking for a hard to find book.
Ordered several books that were relatively recent releases, but used, in like new condition and were cheaper than I could get elsewhere.
It was easy to order. I received my books within a couple of weeks. I have recommended to co-workers who are back in school with me.
Direct, honest and responsive. Such a nice change from other companies with opaque origins and practices.
Book as described with minor cosmetic defects as you could expect for a used book.
I would recommend to anyone. Was satisfied with every step of the order.
Ordered Dec 28. Received Jan 21. It sat in a facility just a few miles from my home for over a week! NUTS!
When I can't find what I am looking for locally, Alibris is my go-to. Their network of stores across North America is truly impressive.
Was easy to navigate the alibris website and easy to find and order the book.
I'm so glad I discovered Alivris! Great books at great prices. Thank you Alibris!
Easily search by author, title, or subject. Consumers are typically presented with several cost options, based upon the condition of the material. Book sellers are rated, allowing discriminating consumers a number of variables against which to evaluate any potential purchase.
Easy to find what I was looking for, price of the book I needed to order for college.
The book came in good time and good condition. A simple transaction, no problems. Afterwords you get e-mails a lot, no big deal.
Large selection, excellent prices, fast shipping - easy to use website
Please make survey shorter if you're going to ask me to confirm my shipment
Good condition, minor dents and no highlights on the pages. Delivery took a while.
Great UI and UX. All information was accessible, something not often found on most sites.
I was very satisfied with the services/products. Thank you!
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.
