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.

I found a very good quality used edition of the book I was looking for. The book arrived quickly and in better condition than expected. Over all I was very happy with the experience, and it's why I keep coming back.
I received all of my items in time and I am enjoying the content so far!
Shopping experience was good, Offer many options. Found what I wanted
It is so easy to order books that I have too many in my "to be read"stack...
I'm a used-books person. I don't need new. I believe in responsible reuse of produced goods. As such, I find Alibris to be a good online marketplace to easily find titles, in gently used condition that are attractively priced. Alibris is an easy and intuitive site to use, but do check the reliability and ratings of the different sellers, to better assure a good shopping experience.
Logical and easy to move about and very relevant and helpful detailed information
Great selection and prices very prompt delivery love this site
I use alibris for all my book purchases and have always been satisfied with the timely manner of shipping and reasonable prices
So far, I ordered he book and the process was smooth. Let's see if the book is delivered on time with expedited shipping and a tracking number
Nice price easy, let's see how long it takes to get here, I'm excited
I got free shipping and a $3.00 discount. I am very happy with the purchase.
I was able to order autobiography of the flea for $15. I inadvertently log out. Returned to replace my original order and was refused. That book was no longer available in 2 minutes later.
Always very fast. I always find the books I want from Alibris that i cannot locate in other book sites
Was easy to find the book I wanted, easy to check out and low shipping
Easy process. I'm not sure why you need 50 characters. This is annoying
Great shopping experience. Easy transaction process. Carefree shopping.
Alibiris links to many retailers with a huge overall inventory, however where you buy which items will impact the shipping cost and it can take a moment's figuring to determine what the shipping cost will be and therefore, what the real price will be for items listed. It's well worth it IMHO; I've never gotten anything that wasn't as described, books were in as good or better condition than indicated, excellent values.
Easy searching, transparent pricing, easy navigation.
I wanted to email the seller but your site is giving an error message and won't let me.
Quick and simple interface. Some alternatives for same product to chose according your needs.
Nice and cheap website. I will recommend it to all of my friends. God bless
Looking for a fairly rare 1971 book, and found it! Allibris usually has what I'm looking for in pre-1980s books
Found a rare book I was looking for, reasonably priced
It was so easy-to-use place an order. And there selection are awesome.
My original order was cancelled. I was given an option for another book but at a higher cost. This is almost sounds like "bait-and-switch". I hope this never happens again
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.
