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 very good. I found what I was looking for, in the condition I sought.
It is easy. Shipping cost is high. I like to read and am always acquiring books and learning.
You should allow me to pay with my card without all the password crap.
Short, sweet and to the point. They had what I was looking for and the prices for a lot of the books they have available are reasonable for the most part.
I was disappointed that there was no way to establish an account prior to completing a sale.
Packing is so important. Bubble wrap to keep corners flat and board unbent.
You guys are amazing! I just ordered a CD copy of The Great Milenko and they were priced so well, I couldn't even believe my eyes!
Product came and was satisfied with condition. Thank you for helping me
Quick and good price - enjoy availability of books and good prices and have been pleased with the sellers
Good quality, quick response and good price! I appreciate the fact that I can find books that are older and not as available.
Good, except i would have liked to know how i could have requested expedited shipping for my order. A group of us are meeting to discuss a chaper in 2 weeks.
Quality merch - good prices - great selection - I shall return
It's fast, it's easy, there are many choices, and I never have to wait long. Thank you.
Great prices, amazing availability of brilliant writers.
User interface was understandable, intuitive, and quick. Very user friendly.
The item I ordered was received. However, It is a total duplication of the two other books by the same artist. I believe it was just a copy of the artist's previous work compiled with new title and stamped with his name. In other words, it was fraudulent and just copied.
Normally, my shopping experience is good. However, this time I got three timeouts from Edgio while I the shopping cart.
I needed a book for my class and found it on Alibris and received it in time for the first day of class
It's confusing. Seniors on a fixed income have to watch how much they spend. The shipping costs are prohibitive. I don't mind paying for the books, but I KNOW it does not cost $3.50@ to combine shipping on the books. It took me hours to figure out this order. I had a dozen books that I had to remove from the cart for cost reasons. My husband is an avid reader. I hate ordering books for him for the aforementioned reasons.
Book was removed from my cart before I was finished shopping. Coupon ads in my emails are misleading.
Easy to process will come back again in the future I hope some time
Found everything at one seller and for a good price, always seem to find what I'm looking for
Usually find the book I'm looking for, usually used. Always a good price. Hate Amazon.
