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.

It was not clear about the shipping. Way to much for shipping
Will not be using your site again. I could have bought the books new
Easy, fast, found what I needed and low price allowed me to afford the shipping. Also buying regionally local!
Easy to follow more or less and the price was reasonable when including shipping.
Super fast and easy to order. Now we wait and see how fast the book arrives!
Easy to search for books by title, author or even key words. Then find the best deal which means the condition of the book and the shipping costs. I buy most of my books this way. I've bought many from Alibris and they've always been good to me.
Easy to find the books I want, easy to buy, quick and easy
User friendly! The books received are always well represented to be in the condition advertised.
Your website is well-laid out, easy to review options, and easy to use.
Am a long-time customer. Always satisfied. Easy-to-use website, sellers always deliver as promised.
Book shipments to Fiji, where I live, are unreliable. The book I ordered arrived in a mere three weeks. It was packed in such a way as to protect it from damage, and the book was in excellent condition.
Quick and easy Great price easy to navigate website would recommend to others
Big selection of used books! I found this book in good condition for a great price.
Was able to find the book with ease & compare prices asap! Thank you!
I have shopped off and on with Alibris for many years. Your are great!
I saved this obscure mid-70s political thriller a few weeks ago and was relieved to see the price unchanged when payday arrived. Alibris is the service I've recommended to people for years.
I find rare, affodable deals in Alibris, as I have for years. It's invaluable. Thanks to all who make it happen.
…and great service. The book was even better than I expected and it had no mail damage because the book was very carefully packaged.
It was a nice deal on manga, I had gotten the fruits basket in would've paid more in store. The sellers have a good description about whatever book you're getting, which is really helpful. I always come here to shop for books mainly manga overall would recommend getting books here.
I recently was gifted a baby turtle and needed a good source for information regarding turtle care.
I ordered 2 books from the Alibris site. I received them both within a week of my order. They arrived in great condition.
I had to change my billing address and it was difficult and confusing to go back and forth through the screens.
Found almost what I needed and checked out. I LOVE this place!
As usual, easy; quick, clear presentation of information.
I really like the new shopping aid for getting better prices.
I found the book I needed for school for around $25 used. Originally $200!
Great site with so many options. I'm so glad my teacher turned me on to your site!
Found what I needed online, with several options (publication, condition, price). Chose what I wanted, it arrived before Father's Day, condition as promised. Happy Dad.
