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.

Alibris has used books that can not be found anywhere else. Simple order process and the book arrives on my doorstep a few days later.
It was great I got my product at a good time the product was in good condition when I got it there was nothing wrong with it and it was cheaper than all the other online shopping services.
Easy and quick. Pleasant experience! Recommended it to friends.
It would be great if you would include an area for directions to an address. We live on a State Route and it doesn't show that on your form. I realize you use GPS but I still have items returned because the driver can't figure it out.
Good experience, pretty fast, though I would have liked to be given updates on where the package was and when it arrived.
Easy search and quick checkout. Can usually find the hard-to-find.
Smooth running web interface, and always able to find what I'm looking for
Everything arrived in great condition. Especially for an online used book store, their site is clean, informative, and easy to find needed details.
Always have a good selection of the books I want and Alibris has quality service.
Alibris is always my choice for availability, service, and pric.
Alibris has always been beyond beyond my expectations. I will continue to make more purchases.

The condition of the book purchased from Jonathan Grobe Books was incompletely described in that the book and dust cover smelled extremely strongly of mildew. I am still working to rid it of this smell

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.
