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 is always easy to navigate the website to buy the books I want and need. I love it when suggestions are made to cut down my costs as well as the dugutal coupon codes. Alibris has been my choice fir books for nearly 20 years!
Making purchases using the Alibris interface has always been pleasant. Probably a little too easy as I seem to make many purchases when I should be sleeping.
Thank you for the quality book at great price. The shipping was quick too.
I found what very wanted quickly, for a good price a d check out was easy 😀
I tried to order this book from my local book store but all they found was a used copy for over $30. Alibis was the best price of anyone online.
For this order a "5" and may it arrive next week 😊
Easy to find product. Decent price for what I was looking for. First time buyer gets tonight. So hoping I get my product in reasonable time delivery.
I received two copies of the book I ordered, one for me, one for a friend. I like it so much I ordered two more subsequently. They will be gifts to friends. They have not arrived yet, but I expect them any day. The service has never been anything less than advertised regarding shipping times, etc. Thanks.
Simple, painless, and quick. My movie was shipped safely and quickly. Quality of movie, case, disc was like new.
Alibris sent me the book I ordered in excellent condition in a resonable timeframe for a decent price.
Five for the website with great service, fast shipping
Arrived (2 shipments) in perfect condition, great packing and quick delivery
Great because I was looking for the DVD in the face of evil about Ronald Reagan freed many nations when the USSR desolved
Ordering a book was simple and quick. Well done, Alibris
Great selection of books. Only thing that would make it awesome is the ability to put in multiples books that i am searching for, and it would give me some suggestions from buying from the same seller. This would save me time adding a multiple books to the cart then see which book line up with which seller.
Love the ease and selection. Website works very well.
Great experience. Easy to order and received soon. Great value! Thanks, will purchase more in future.
I like the various options when I am looking for a specific book.
Always fun to shop at Alibris. I will be back.
Fast shipping! Received on day stated and book was in great condition!
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.

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.
