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.

EVERYTHING IS GOOD,,,NO PROBLEMS,,,,I HAD PROBLEMS ON PREVIOUS ORDER (FIRST TIME IN ALL THE MANY YEARS THAT I HAVE BEEN A CUSTOMER) HOWEVER MIKE WITH ALIBRIS WAS ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM.
Easy shopping,,, selections should be left in cart 24 hrs.
I really object to having to establish an account for what will be a one time order. Also, the shipping address and the billing address are different, but I a separate billing address was not an option, so we'll see if the order actually gets placed.
Great. Easy. I was interested in children's books for 6-7 year olds.
Abundant copies available. Ease of opening an account. I'll be back.
Have ordered books through Alibris many times and have always been satisfied with the purchase.
Good, very good, very very very very very very very very good
Clear and easy check out procedures with options to upgrade shipping
I was happy with the quick delivery and quality of the product.
Great. I got the book I ordered, in good time. And good condition, if this is about the book Love is a Choice, in paper book. The title of the book has not been mentioned from your end, and I've placed another order since.
I'm thankful for Alibris, to be able to get books that are out of print! Thank you.
It is always quick and easy! I have been shopping with you for years.
Beautiful used book in great condition, good price and timely delivery.
Thanks, except for this survey everything went well!
Best on-line books (and others!) service ever! If the book is out there somewhere - you'll find it. Not as fun as shopping old book stores but a lot less frustrating when you're looking for something specific!
Super simple user interface - really appreciate the "Recommended Choice" suggestion. Shipping has always been on time and product exactly as described.
Very easy ordering. I was looking for this book and was thrilled with your price.
Volume was quickly found. Several excellent choices. Expedited delivery.
From browsing the site for the book I needed, to seeing the various offerings, to actually purchasing my book, everything was simple, straightforward, and easy. My book arrived well packaged and in good condition. Shipping and tracking were fast and easy as well.
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.
Answer: Hi Dennis, That depends on where the seller is located and where your deliver address is as well. Generally, shipments within the States are delivered within a week or so, though holiday shipping might slow down a bit. If you send us the details with your order number in an email to [email protected] we can look into the specifics for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: Hi Valerie, If you have had a problem with your Visa or PayPal transactions on our site, please let us know the details at [email protected] so that we can investigate for you. Thank you for your question. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: HI Zoila, Delivery timeframes within the States are usually between 3 and 8 days, but it depends on where the seller is that is shipping the item to you. If you have already placed an order, please contact us at [email protected] with your order details and we can investigate for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: Really Michael, contact you directly? Why should we have to. There is a bad trend here. Seems MANY of us contact you and you DONT respond
Answer: I saw the fake stellar reviews and did not dig deeper. I til... I had an issue. Initially, I wanted to give a small seller some business after COVID and the site looked really good. What a big mistake that was! Shame on this outfit.
