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.

I am a repeat Alibris customer, and the site has always been excellent for Anthropology!
Always an excellent experience, with Alibris; this is an ideal site for scholars.
Confirmation should verify soft cover or hard cover purchase... mine is hard cover and I would have liked to have my order summary before commiting to show hard cover.
Had what I was looking for at a good price, done deal
Very easy to edit cart and place order -- Keep up the good work!
I can rely on Alibris to have the books I want to find. Great used book/ out of print resource!
Great source for used and new books, music and video. I appreciate the fact that you ship by the US Postal Service and Canada Post as then I know that my parcels will be delivered securely to a locked Canada Post mailbox in the lobby of my apartment building.
Alibris offers bargain prices (the BEST anywhere!), unimpeachable customer service, reliability, and has NEVER LET ME DOWN. I urge all my friends to buy their books here.
Found the book at a good price. Big catalog of books, spanning both new and used copies and some rare books.
As usual, alibris is easy to navigate, and I most often find what I'm looking for pretty quickly.
I'm a repeat customer. Navigation on this site is easy for me. So far the descriptions for used book condition have been accurate, in my opinion. I'll be back when I'm looking for another book.
I can always count on Alibris to have the Hard-to-find books. Thank you for your years of providing just the right book.
Great service highly recommend, would order again.
Was fairly simple but the cost of shipping and handling was actually higher than the cost of the 2 books I ordered.
All 9 books I bought were delivered on time or even early and all but one in the condition they were described in.
Easy and efficient. Super easy to place an order, delivery was very quick.
Your service was Rapid, the products received were excellent quality as described.
Most purchases from Alibris arrive in the estimated time. I purchase 15 books a year from Alibris. Pricing is great for out of print books.
Unfortunately the Bible was dirty on the inside and a few ripped pages. For the price I wasn't expecting that.
I like supporting Goodwill along with getting good books
