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.

Kept trying to reset my password (4 times), followed instructions. Got an email that was empty except a little "contact us" link that worked but did not take me to reset. So I checked out as a guest.
Also it was unclear to me whether I had submitted delivery address or billing address when I did not select "same"
The special offers distracted me for a bit. I decided to complete the order by my old familiar methofs.
You have a wide variety of titles and your site works really well.
Great experience, this site had the cheapest price and we wanted to get 50 of the books.
Classic literature in book form at a reasonable price is almost impossible to find anymore. On Alibris, I can find just about anything I want.
I found my book quickly and easily. The checkout procedure was smooth and easy too.
Shopping is one thing...getting what I ordered, is another. We shall see.
You always have a good variety of books and a good price.
The variety of selection and descriptions are always excellent.
Alibris is incredible. Their simple, powerful search tool always finds the books I'm looking for, supporting a vast range of independent sellers. The best.
Quick and easy to shop. Great selection and had the book I was looking for.
I found the book I needed quickly at a reasonable price.
Books arrived on-time, well packaged. I was happy with the transaction.
It bothers me that full shipping for books are charged even when multiple books come from same bookstore.
I love using Alibris to find uncommon and out of print titles, and this was my best find yet! The delivery time was quick, the item was in excellent condition, and the price can't be beat.
Great price on the title by an author that I really enjoy. Great quick shipment time too!
I order from Alibris quite often. Great prices and delivery is very fast. Would recommend to anyone that is an avid reader like myself.
I requested an address change after the order was placed and Alibris made sure the package was addressed correctly. They made sure I got what I wanted, where I wanted
I have had extreme difficulty in finding this book due to an error in the ISBN listed on some major websites. Thank you for making this so much easier!
Item was listed as new but had a significant scratch. The seller provided a discount.
I appreciated that even though it took a long time (10 days) to receive my order, I was kept informed about the process all along the way.
