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.

Love this online bookstore for any type of book! I use it for all of my readings.
Great site. I can usually find any book here. At a great price.
Good experience. Good price do not make this response difficult. You did a good job now let me go.
Alibris is the best! It´s the first used book site I think of when searching for books!
I was impressed by the delivery speed, but the book does have some dark stains on the top of the book. It will be fine, though.
Nice to locate hard to find books at reasonable prices A large selection of esoteric books.
Easy to use. Good selection available. Used books are in good condition. Timely delivery. All around happy customer.
It has been easy to use, and there is a good selection of books. I'm using it to find seminary books.
Easy and quick, found the out of print book I was searching for.
All great! I have only found all the books I needed on your site. Thanks a lot!
I love shopping at alabris books! I almost always find what I'm looking for at a very reasonable price.
I love buying my books only from Alibris. Prices are the best and shipping is always fast. Books are always in very good quality.
Quick and easy! Informative descriptions and had exactly what I was looking for at great prices!
Ordering online was quite easy as was the checkout process. I was searching for a specific book and it was pricey brand new. I didn't need a new one and Alibris had several listed that were highly ranked as used copies. I hope I'm not disappointed with my order when it arrives!
Original vendor did not have my item. Replacement, although not very expensive, is twice the price of the original. And, to add annoyance, the coupon I could not use over the weekend (because the original item was too cheap) was now expired. I will be stopping all promotional emails from Alibris as I NEVER get to use them.
Found the book I was looking for! Quick and efficient and great savings! Recommend!
I find Alibris often has lower prices than Amazon for the same book. Further, some books I couldn't find elsewhere were available at reasonable prices on Alibris
Placed an order only to notified later that it was not available.
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.

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.
