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.

Quick to find the book I wanted at an excellent price; easy to place order.
Efficient process which has always been satisfactory in the many times I've used it
Purchased from Alibris multiple times and have always been satisfied with my purchases.
I've been a cusromer for well over 20 years! Always have what I search for at the very best prices, plus prompt follow-up and delivery of my purchases.
Super easy; always have what I'm looking for!
Quick and easy. I found what I was looking for in just a few key strokes. I aways check Alibris first for books I am seeking.
Shopping is so easy on Alibris and shipping is fast. What more can I say?
Very easy finding the used book I need. Easy payment and check out.
Yeah I got the ebook quickly. It didn't come ad fast as I thought it would but overall I can't complain.
It was understandably easy to navigate, and place my order.
My fault, I didn't read the details. It was a code for an online book. That was fine. But, I was not able to utilize the code as Pearson wanted me to register it with my course or use something from the university book store. Unfortunately, waste of money.
Instructions and information.were clear, price is compatible with my needs.
Alibris was great, easy shopping, the book was in good condition, no complaints at all.
I have ordered over 200 books from you but have never received or used the coupons I have requested at (*******@surewest.net). Can someone please explain or send me some coupons?
I keep getting notices but have never been able to access coupons
All good. I should remember to look here first. Grateful for the prices and the quality.
Excellent condition. Fast.
Read the only true book, the Bible, and repent and believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
Jesus is Lord of lords and King of kings.
ONE POSITIVE THING WHICH HAS HAPPENED IS THAT ALIBRIS HAS IMPROVED THE SHIPPING. THE PRODUCT IS DELIVERED WITHIN THE STIPULATED TIME. PLEASE MAINTAIN.
Fast and easy shopping and paying. Great new site for me. I plan to shop here often for my used book needs.
I need to find a list of all the ebooks that cost less than 1.5 usd to be able to look for the ones I need and would love to purchase. But even in advanced searched im not able to do it if I dont complete the author or title wich I dont want as a filter. Please let me know if there is any other way. Thanks.
Seamless ordering! Prices always match my budget, since I like to read a lot. Fast delivery.
I have ordered 4 mainframe books, all in very good condition with the delivery to Europe. Alibris is collecting the books from different sellers from USA and sends all books in one parcel which is good idea. Delivery time is fast. Of course you have to pay for shipment but comparing the prices of the books with other sellers and some discounts you receive the overall order experience is perfect.
Quick and easy. I like that the closest option came up first.
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.
