Well presented and easy to work through it... recommended for its cover of both europe and the usa listings.
Very easy, has titles other stores don't. Easy search facility and simple shipping.
Such a good website. Very easy to understand. Useful that you include pictures of the front cover
FIDDLY to sign up for account. Does not tell you how long and what characters your password must be BEFORE you input it. Also you cannot see it while you are typing it!
UK customer. Found a bargain price US copy of a paperback that is rare over here in a couple of minutes, with the usual affordable Alibris postal rates. Other platforms do have copies, but with a postal rate significantly more than the cost of the book.
Sourced a very obscure book at an affordable price in less than half a dozen clicks - perfect!
Quick and easy identification of the book I needed and a clear easy to follow ordering process
Very quick checkout but please give the pagination of each book...!
Thanks
My first attempt. So far, so good. Easy to browse and order. I am a new member.
Easy to order online. Very good service so far product much better value than other retailers
I did not receive a voucher, enticed with a voucher which i did not receive
Placing an order is easy. Wish you would accept Klarna as a payment method as I for one would definitely buy more at the same time.
Stress free shopping. Fair international shipping rates.
Good and easy website to use, great that books are send overseas.
Usually find just what I Need with some interesting related suggestions.
Wonderful independent website supporting local independent businesses!
Be good to find out postage cost earlier in the process otherwise excellent thank you
Nothing to say except that I object to being told how many characters I may use
Good buying experience but would be perfect if the order page confirmed the condition of the book ordered (there were 2 available from the seller, 1 good, 1 very good - I chose the latter as I only ever buy very good or better items).
Easy to order and I like having the option for guest checkout.
