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.

Alibris îs a wonderful source to find used books; some are out of print books, others just a great value.
Alibris often has books that can be found nowhere else! Alibris is a great resource.
Great prices; since I am ordering two books from the same store, it would be nice to combine the books into one package and save on shipping.

Gathering books for a ladies Bible study today. I am thankful I could find enough books for the whole group plus a book by Lori Wick that completes a set of books that I wanted to keep in my library. Thank you for your help...
I am very pleased with Alibris. I've relied on Alibris for over 10 years to find books to complete sets or to search out a particular genre of books. They have never disappointed my expectations and have been a bargain to boot. Thank you for your continued support and customer care... JG
I'm always happy with what I find at Alibris Books
Shipping fees too expensive but I got what I wanted. I would have bought but I have a mortgage, grandchildren, and have to each at least three times a week.

Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.
Answer: Hi Dennis, That depends on where the seller is located and where your deliver address is as well. Generally, shipments within the States are delivered within a week or so, though holiday shipping might slow down a bit. If you send us the details with your order number in an email to [email protected] we can look into the specifics for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: Hi Valerie, If you have had a problem with your Visa or PayPal transactions on our site, please let us know the details at [email protected] so that we can investigate for you. Thank you for your question. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: HI Zoila, Delivery timeframes within the States are usually between 3 and 8 days, but it depends on where the seller is that is shipping the item to you. If you have already placed an order, please contact us at [email protected] with your order details and we can investigate for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
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.
