Alibris Reviews Summary
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 like that you provide coupons for use in buying books. XXXX
My first time ordering from this site.
However it was easy to use.
Know i will see how it is ship and i will come back and leave and updated comment.
Both books arrived separately, 2 different sellers. They were both in the good condition described and arrived quickly, before the deadline.
Still getting accustomed to your process. I have a little problem switching back and forth to compare books but getting brtter.

I was looking for The Nightingale by Kristen Hannah for the book club I am in. Alibris had the best price. The website was a breeze to use. I look forward to reading this book.
You can get hard to find books in good condition at great prices. Great experience.
Hard to find books in great condition with great prices. Highly recommended.
According to the description the item was a complete set of 'New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians'. To make it clear I inquired about it twice but each time they responded that they were not able to check it. Simply put they do not know exactly what they are selling. Nevertheless I placed an order, trusting the description. And what I received was one random volume out of 29 volumes. I requested a full refund but they wouldn't refund shipping but instead offered $5 coupon, which is less than the shipping. I'll never do business with them again.
Quick and easy transaction. The book I was searching for is 11 years old and hard to find in decent condition. This book is in near perfect condition at a fraction of the price.
🌟 My experience was a great one. Thank you very much! 🌟🌟🌟
Big selection Shipping costs are exorbitant. Books have been As advertised
Very straightforward, uncomplicated, VAST selection
Arrived within estimated time, was in great shape as advertised.
Books are always "in stock" at Alibris and it's quick, convenient and cost effective.
It was quick and easy and I got $3 off the price of the book although I think that the coupon value should have been higher given that the book cost over $60.
Easy to navigate in the website and make my choices. Easy to check out with my credit card.
