For correct results in reviewing a website/app or an article, one must understand the main point and logic of the product. The key ingredients of any review are the rational evaluation of the article's main topic, supporting reasoning, and anticipation of future research.
It's tedious having to login. Apparently I already have an account which I last used many years ago. I just want to order a book.
I ike Alibris. I couldn't understand why there was a snag with my password, which is why I only clicked four instead of my usual five stars
A bit random when adding a new shipping address, otherwise fine
Got stuck first time round Alibris verifying my internet connection so this is my second attempt.
Alibris is fine but Bankk of Ireland stopped the order for a random security check...sigh...now gone through
I love alibris and recommend it frequently to friends and students
Your website is straight forward and very easy to use.
I didn't wish to save payment details but had no option, as far as I could see.
A bit unclear what one is committing to at the beginning
I'm always able to get the books i want at great prices
It's always easy to find what i want to read at reasonable prices and quick delivery
Si easy to find the book choice and price you want.
Love the wide range of books and great prices
It is always easy to find the books and a good choice of condition and price;
So easy to navigate the pages - all information and pricing is easy to access and read and prices are reasonable
Hard to find books at decent prices, shipping costs great, fast & responsive website. Simple & quick to order.
Due to shipping issues on US site for UK to UK purchase and delivery they provided the.co.uk link to try to correct the issue. It worked but only if a proxy is used. Given the choice I would have given at least a 3.5 star rating. Thanks.
Certain popular books that I searched for were overpriced and the price of shipping is a joke. Why is there a separate shipping charge for each book even when it's from the same retailer? I didn't have a choice as I need these books for school.
I love Alibris! So great to be able to buy the books you want, second hand, and with that, buy second hand books online!
I gift these books to Filipino seafarers as presents to take home for their families at the end of their usual nine month contracts at sea.
Confusing not what I expected from my previous experiences on Alibris.
Found what I could not get on Amazon.
Easy site to use and excellent value for money - many thanks
They need to quickly update the stock of books in each store to avoid order cancellations and buyer inconvenience.
