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 have long sought to acquire more information on the writings of Dr. Clark as part of a much broader, and VERY long-term research project. Until now, I had only been able to find either no listings, or copies which were far outside my resources. This copy was not only affordable, but in almost the ideal condition for my needs, and provided a bibliography as well as a hefty example of his writing. I have yet to be disappointed by any of Ken Faig's volumes, and this is no exception. Even at this early stage, so soon after its arrival, I have already found it to be of great value. (Now, if I could only get my hands on some of Clark's translations of the Graeco-Roman classics...)...
Not happy. $5 off is not a big deal on a $92 order. Shipping was proportionately a lot of the final cost.
However, I would like to have had a coupon for a $75 purchase.
Glad you had the book I wanted! I found it interesting.
Can't seem to get into my [email protected] account so I ordered as a guest. I put in my new password and it did not work twice.
Found what I was looking for quickly at a great price and ordering was simple.
Should offer free shipping on large orders. Should indicate in searches sellers in basket to reduce shipping costs
Entering address information for order
The website is quick to respond, and I like the way it lists my choices in order of price. The evaluation of books has thus far been right on target.
Love being able to get used books reasonably. I read a lot.
Always easy to navigate and finds me great bargains!
Well the pages kept changing. The wrong address was hard to correct. Meaning the apartment number was left out.
I could not get the message to the seller to go through because of the I'm not a robot bar it wouldn't except mine. Also please describe the ratings of the condition of the book. Whatdoes good mean? I could not find a rating system anywhere.
I LOVE Alibris! Lovingly used books at an affordable price. It's my go-to book supplier!
I seem to always find the book I am seeking! Thank You!
I just found a copy of something I wanted...thank you!
Once again...I found an out-of-print book I was seeking...at a very reasonable price! Thank you!
I usually find what I am seeking...
Easy to find what I was seeking. Thank you!
Once I changed my Billing Address to my new address, it was all very easy!
Fast checkout, but can't seem to get over the password problem. Forgot it and when I type in my email & click "forgot" a new password or number doesn't come in.
Pretty good, but pass key business a bit confusing.
Very easy to use. Wide variety of books very well organized
My experience was great until I Paid $4.40 for Shipping. That cost more than the book itself.
Why do you compel me to waste my own valuable time composing a longer assessment when a single word says it all?
Excellent easy to find what I needed and check out fast and easy
I have been using alibris for several years and appreciate it
I've always had a good experience with Alibris
Too much trouble with the ordering process, i had to clear browser too many times, but i am still glad that i was able to purchase it at this price.
