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.

Alibris is very dependable and it is easy to use. It finally fixed a mistake on its main page after I emailed a couple of times.
Lovely clean copy, just as represented; safely packaged, promptly delivered.
I was surprised to find the book I was looking for on Alibris web site.
I enjoy ordering books from Alibris. Great prices and quick delivery.
I almost always buy my books from Alibris. Good prices, reliable, and easy to order.
Books were in better than expected condition and were reasonably priced.
You can get books for 40-45% off mrsp if you play it right and buy in bulk. Happy shopping!
The book came exactly as described and I feel that the price was good especially because of the book being out of print and hard to find
Shopping was great...easy...everything worked at this website!
I ordered the book I chose while riding in a car on my way home from a Civil War battlefields tour. It wasn't waiting on my doorstep when I got home, but it was close, showing up a few days later.
Got your account from local bookstore, The Raven in Lawrence Ks.
Love buying books from them. They gave me the name Alibris and I will use again when needed. Thanks
The book was not properly packed (it was a large hardcover book and was shipped in just a paper envelope. It was bent and the cover damaged in shipment.
It was delivered quickly. Very inexpensive. It was in great condition.
I needed this rare book overnighted to me as I had an opportunity to meet the author. The seller worked very diligent with me to help get this overnighted. The condition of this used book was exactly as described and it was packaged very safely. I would definitely buy from them again!
Took way too long to get here and cost 4 times the price on the little book
Easy, efficient, unlike this review of required number of words.
Glad I found you! It's a book that is out of print so I didn't know what my result would be, then I found you!
I've been a customer for many years and have never been disappointed. Each seller is different, and I've never had an unfilled order. Shipping times vary, of course, but I'm not usually buying in a time-sensitive situation. So it works out great for me.
Can always find great options. Easy site to navigate.
Happy to have found an out of print book at a reasonable price. Easy to use interface on website.
If the book I'm wanting is offered a little cheaper elsewhere, I will get it through Alibris. I trust them and don't need to give my information to a new place.
I always check Alibris when buying a book. Very, very satisfied.
I can usually find what I want on Alibris, and being able to choose among vendors is a big plus for me.
