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's so easy shop and purchase on Alibris! I always seem to find exactly what I'm looking for.
Website is very easy to navigate. Found what I was looking for at a good price.
Good price especially with $20 coupon and there was free shipping on 2 books.
Easy to find the titles I want, and the editions I want. No sponsored items cluttering my search returns. Actual sellers with real addresses, not ghost storefronts.
Quick and easy to navigate; with plenty of information about the item.
Free shipping is misleading. I often order but will order two or three books that do not get me to the $35 free shipping.
Navigating the books i want to order in multiple copies with shipping cost
No issues, easy checkout. Appreciated being able to check out as a guest but could create account afterward just by adding a password
Alibris is always my go-to bookstore. Great selection & fast shipping!
You always have everything I'm looking for! Love your site!
Really like the Alibris web site. Easy to use; can find gently worn used books, or new, at a great price. Usually shopping for a family member in a rural area without independent bookstores. Can find what they want here.
Lost my first cart when I tried to login. Ordering second time around was a bit faster. Thanks!
I've used Alibis before. Really good prices and dvd condition
Very convenient site bringing both seller and buyers together. It's a very useful tool when utilized by all!
Easy to find what I want, options available, and a breeze to shop! Thank you!
Amazing access to so many books! I found a book that is not popular but was available at alibris
The tax rate is incorrect. My tax rate at my address is 8.1%, not 8.7%
My Sales tax rate is 8.1%. I understand that it is difficult figuring out all of these, but companies like Avalara help figure out sales taxes for companies like yours.
Always available and great quality with assortment of inventory.
Excellent—no issues locating and ordering these books, and I do appreciate the items being reserved in my cart while I debated purchasing more.
Postage is too high and it is not shown until end Please enter at least 50 characters. You have to be kidding Your are not worth 50 characters
Are you sure? Benefits of our free follow up service include order confirmation, additional feedback options, and convenient customer care resolution services should any issues arise. You are crazy
No place to put SO #, just praying it get to him
Easy to find merchandise with good details. The senders list information about their business which is also very helpful.
I had a very specific book sent to me in under two weeks. I was very satisfied that the website was easy to navigate. The price was more than fair. Thank you.
Found (difficult-to-find) books and ordering was easy. As usual, I wish shipping charges were cheaper...
I don't understand why only one bookseller went to consolidated shipping. I had two different booksellers that I bought more than one book from in this order. (#72348729 - Elizabeth Brinker ph. (989) 662-2207.
It took a while but I finally figured out what was needed from me!
