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.

Ordering was simple. The instructions were easy to follow. I liked the big letters and that you gave me several chances to review my order.
This site showed up when I was looking in Amazon. I had more buying options, so I used it. Quick and easy.
Huge inventory, good search engine. Easy to work with. Suppliers always ship quickly and books are exactly as described.
Pleasant, easy to navigate, great selection and manageable
I'm very pleased to find an affordable hardcover copy of THE ANIMAL FAMILY. It is a favorite from childhood (many years ago).
Nice and easy order process and I thought it is a nice interface.
It is difficult to figure out which things were for free shipping, and the shipping cost on the non-free books were very high.
In three places, you described my book differently: unknown binding, paperback binding, and looseleaf binding. The type of binding is associated with the ISBN. How can you not know what it is? Paperback binding is what I selected from the list of books. Yet, my shipped description states looseleaf, which is not desirable.
Have been a customer at Alibris for many years and the service has always been quick and efficient.
I have good luck finding reasonably priced books on your website. Thank-you!

Great timing for 20% off coupon code when we needed an expensive book anyway!
User friendly site, no issues finding the books I was looking for.
Fast, efficient, transparent, with clear information on condition of books and evaluation of sellers.
Very easy to find books I was seeking, with different formats, pricing and condition clearly specified, as well as discount for combination of items.
So easy. And I adore the selection of books available through Alibris. Long live print!
