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.

So far so good. Hopefully I don't run into a bad seller. 😅
Pressed some buttons and my book is being sent. Amazing what you can do these days!
I'm grateful you have the books I was looking for and for a good price.
Love the options in price and condition, I can always find books not available in stores, especially textbooks and hard-to- find out of print books
I'm always able to find uncommon titles here.
I don't buy used books (or books in general) much, but my experience shopping was good, I bought two books!
Very easy to purchase this item. Thank you very much!
Prices were good, selection was good but shipping was high.
Not bad, so far it was as easy as most sites whilst purchasing a product.
Quick easy click through!
Found my book and shipped it!
My shopping experience was quick I found the book I wanted right away at a reasonable price and it just worked well into the system integrated well with my PayPal account so thank you
Easy to navigate and liked the suggestion and how i could save a little on my order.
Quick and easy; wish one knew if book was large print before getting to checkout.
Generally very good, but a little confusing at firs.
Great site. I won't buy videos or music from Amazon any more.
Best price for this book. Thanks for easy ordering as a guest, other sites require e-mail, password, setup an account, etc.
Hassle free ordering gave you the sale!
Need an option to send as gift and include a message.
Shipping too expensive, but found the books I wanted, so happy about that.
It's always a pleasure to shop on Alibris. They have earned my trust and repeat business.
So far, so good. The shipping charges however were a bit of a shock. Still, much better that Decluttr!
I have shopped at Alibris for years and it has always been a great experience.
I'm helping renativize a wooded area. A lot starts with observing and identifying the trees. Will return to Alibris. Easy search and selection for hard to find books. Thank you

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.
