Alibris Reviews Summary
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 makes finding and ordering easy and fast. Postage is rather expensive but you usually have what I want.
Unlike so many online sites the purchase was easy and quick from start to finish. I am so grateful for that at the end of a long work day. I had abandoned other sites because they were unhelpful. I wil try Alibris first next time.
I would have preferred to speak to a real, living human being, and to also not have had to give you my credit card information to be maintained on your computer system, whose security method is only God knows what.

This is the first stop when I'm looking for a certain books that are hard to find
Good selection at great prices! Easy checkout is a plus! Quality books too
Found book at great price.
Easy to check out. Now they are my favorite book store
I've been ordering books and DVDs from Alibris for over 20 years (I think - for a long time anyway). Descriptions of the books are accurate and prices are reasonable. Of course, like everything else, prices for shipping and the books themselves have gone up. Some retailers falsely state the books have been shipped as soon as they receive the order. The only way to accurately check on shipment is to rely on the delivery confirmation number from the post office. Overall, the whole thing was good.
Ordered a book twice -- found that error but not clear how to fix it easily
Quick and accurate. Familiar with Alibris as brick and mortar.
Found the book and quickly. Your service is always excellent.
Alibris had the best price on the version/conditions of the book that I was looking for (hardcover/fine or like new). The ordering process was easy as well.
I just now ordered a book. The process was simple, easy. The book was the least expensive compared to other sites. I hope this continues thru to the end when I receive my book.
Got what I paid for and books was as described. Good price for the book.
Overall very good experience. Thank you! I will use your service again.
Quick, secure, easy. Other buyers loved this seller. That means thumbs up for me.
