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.

Ordered wrong book sbsisvansmajvswbdvevaisbscsbbskssbshs
I easily found and ordered the book I wanted. I guess I'll have to see how the book is delivered to give a real review of the delivery.
Easy, painless experience that makes getting my piano books quick to get.

Prompt shipping, easy transaction, good communication, no problems
Ordering simple. Received confirmation with tracking. Prompt delivery. All good.
I love Alibris but they are a victim of their own success. I only recommend it to my closest friends. Hard to find/out of print items can be easily obtained for reasonable prices
Everything was fine (low price, fast shipping) except that the book, described as "new," was banged up a bit (corner creased, edge bumped), probably during shipping and because of insufficient padding.
Super easy to buy the book with amazing price on books and shipping cist
I love the ease of Alibris, every order is perfect and arrives quickly.
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.
