Alibris

I am very grateful for all that you do for those who seek information on all aspects of life to fulfill their goals and aspiration in life. By the knowledge in the products you provide again thank you and God bless.

Be careful of the giant book warehouses -- they sometimes have strange copies of the available book, but don't make that clear in the description. For example, the novel I received is an edition for readers of German trying to learn English, and is filled with footnotes explaining complex English words in German! Yes, I can still read the novel, but this would not have been the copy I chose if I had known.

I saw that several cheap paperbacks we wanted were listed as having free shipping so I added three to this order. But when I went to pay, additional shipping was charged for all three so I cut my order back to the one book that was a necessity.

Until the end, I didn't know how to minimize shipping, etc. Trying to buy banned books to send to Naval Academy. Sent you an email to ask about really high shipping. Got message your own email address not good. So tried again by just ordering books from one store. THEN got how to optimize message and the cart was rearranged. Long tedious project, what with going back and forth from list of banned books to what I can find on your site. That's not your problem, but an earlier message about Cart Optimizer would really have helped.

I have ordered from Alibris repeatedly and have been quite satisfied with both the process and the books. For some reason the last book took two weeks to travel from western Missouri to eastern Kansas vis post office. I guess this is a review of the post office rather than Alibris.

Mostly good; one of the 2 Field Guide to American Wildlife books I ordered was rated "good condition"
I would have rated it as "fair". It was serviceable, regardless, especially for an old edition that is not easy of find.

I had read several books by Deborah Harkness and they were no longer at the public library. I had watched a movie on one of her books and wanted to re-read the books in her series. I find her books very interesting from a historical perspective and the references to mythology intriguing as well. The interplay with modern science makes a very enjoyable yarn. The great price captured my decision to place the order.

Received the book fine. Almost 3 weeks later, I received an email concerning the order that only had the order number and not the book title, so I had no idea what book order was being asked about. I'm old. I had to reset my password to get back into my account and check to see what I had ordered. I order books from different places, for myself or my church. All this, so I could go back to your current email and say yes, I received the book 3 weeks ago! I could have spent this time on some other activity.

I originally found this book on another website, but it was so annoying to go through the purchase process… It kept timing out… So I continued to search and found it here on alibris. Com. Much easier transaction.

The sudden disappearance of my order last night just before it was completed was inconvenient. The email I received this morning was a thoughtful response to my message about the problem. I do appreciate the multiple books of interest to me in stock.

I'm a professor and sometimes I would rather have a physical book than reading it online. Alibris meets my needs by sourcing books all over the country and overseas as well. Moreover, I'm dedicated to supporting the work of independent booksellers.

I discovered Alibris probably 25 years ago. I've never been disappointed with the service I've received, or with the books / movies I've ordered! Very good interface on their website, and I've never had any problems.

Figuring out the most economical way to order to minimize shipping charges (which are steep) is a bit complicated, and the checkout process was delayed due to a "timeout" that caused me to have repeat the whole process.

My shopping cart empties frequently. I do not want to create an account. I used to be able to add items to my cart and it would remember the contents till the next time I went shopping. Now I believe I am supposed to open an account with a password etc. I liked the previous system better.

The last time I ordered a book from alibris they sent me the wrong book. It was very time consuming to try and get this corrected, and I still have not gotten the right book. We'll see if the same thing happens with this book.

I have been using Alibris for a long time and have always been satisfied with the service and with each of my purchases. The information available on the website helps me to choose the copy that will meet my needs and in the rare instances when a book turns out to be unavailable, communication has been prompt and polite.

I used express shipping (5-7 business days) and it got here on the 7th day. I added tracking ability in my order (for the package) which didn't update/work very well, but it still got to me in time so I'm not upset. Would recommend this store to anyone looking for textbooks. The quality of my textbook (that was second hand) is amazing.
