Very efficient. The seller responded very quickly to my enquiry regarding the item.
Straight forward & concise. A+++
Took no time at all to open an account.
Didn't like my debit card... but I persevered! Great range of offers
So easy to use,and such a useful range of accurately described options
Got an enormous number of errors with credit card payment before finally managing to do it.
No matter how many times I entered the payment details, the order was rejected - despite the fact that your site offers payment by Mastercard.
Eventually I had to use a VISA-card to place the order.
Then do remove the Mastercard-option so others do not have the same irritating experience.
I appreciate the availability of the euro as a transaction currency.
Really it was fine - there is nothing to s ay and that is how it should be
Fine it all works simply and good info about the state/edition/quality of the book. Thanks
Keeps refusing my card, even though the one that I use is the one on your system, and is still valid
Your order system is not working. I kept having to enter my card details time and time again. That is twice today it has played up.
I ordered a book, received confirmation and now it has been cancelled.
I'm still learning how to negotiate my way around the site but so far, it's gone very well.
Straightforward and easy to use. Clear description of item.
Excellent selection, fast delivery and helping independent shops.
Excellent range of potential book merchants with all purchasing details.
The website was easy to use
Payment was straightforward to arrange.
I'm in France,. The book is a present, I'd prefer a bill was not included with book Can you do this? Not being able to see this option is my 1 small complaint.
Lovely to find this book as I bought part one years ago and have been looking for part 2!
Very quick simple and straightforward what a great service!
Confusing Visa hiccup. Grateful for a chance to purchase this hard-to-get book. Thank you!
Navigating Alibris is quick and intuitive. I was able to find what I was looking for. Nice transition through to payment, including the option to use guest.

I deduct one star for not indicating the shipping cost up front, and another star for not reminding me that you already have my debit card details on your system.
