Trying to separate shipping address from payment address is faulty despite three attempts. Shipping address defaults to billing address.
Your opinion or explanation would be welcomed.
All good, except that I was not able to ask to see only hardback, for example, and I don't know the size of the book and typeface, which are important factors in my reading experience.
The Alibris site easy to navigate around. But having to type 50 characters is annoying.
Your website has a comprehensive list of titles and is easy to use.
Fast and clear, shipping fees are affordable even in cases where there are no sellers from EU.
Easy and quick website to negotiate with clear instructions.
Always very helpful always very helpful always very helpful

Good prices, usually good quality. Occasional promo codes come in hand. Lots of sellers to choose from.
A few US sellers cancel overseas orders because of shipping expenses.
Great choices as always! Just wanted to dip my toes in with this author.
It was easy so far.
Would have been useful to know which volume of the 5 volumes of this work I was purchasing.
Easy to order and good experience so far! Sensible shipping prices.
System works well, no complaints. Descriptions of book conditions appear genuine.
Updating address slightly confusing instructions but sorted eventually
Check out a nightmare...tiny images, grainy pictures on verification step.
Almost gave up. Totally unnecessary...I have had an Alibris account for a long time, but might not return.
The book I was looking for at a good price. Had some issues with checkout, but eventually succeeded.
The final shipping costs were added only at the very last minute, that seems a bit intransparent, as it increased the price at the last minute
Great efficient service, great prices and fast delivery, first call for any books
