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.

Would be nice to have an option to pay for faster shipping as my child needs this fast
Great experience - the shipping was fast! I am loving the book, but unfortunately, the spine is coming unglued, so some pages may fall out as I go. This is probably due to the age of the book, which is understandable for a soft cover if it's been on the shelf for a while.
It all went smoothly! I have been using the Alibris website for years.

Alibris is always easy to use and usually has the. Best prices
Alibris always has what I want at a very low price and is very easy to order from
It was easy and stress-free. I got my books on time and they had very limited damage to them which is great for a college student who needs books just for one semester.
Quick, easy to find what I was looking for. Reasonable prices.
Alibris always a pleasure to get books from! I always find the hard to find books here.
Easy order process. Price was right. Will use this site again
Reliable source of hard to find books at great prices. I have been satisfied with the shipping times and costs as well.
Very easy shopping as always. It's one of my go to sites to get books.
Thank you so much for answering my question about this book!
Forcing me to provide a 50 character written review. Screw that.
Alibris is my default used book sale website.
(And these are the obligatory and stupid characters to hit the required feed back minimum. Do these numbnuts think I'm their employee?)
Excellent shopping experience, easy and quick. I have been shopping with Alibris for years now and always have a great experience finding the books i want. Very pleased with your site.
Easy to navigate, had the book I wanted at a good price. Only wish would be a faster shipping option.
My Grandfather bought me the same exact book that I had looked through as a kid so many times and shared with other siblings. Finding the same book on your website for a good price has helped bring back those childhood memories I will always cherish and hopefully give and share to my kids and grandkids.
Good selection, good price, easy to use. I need to add more letters, so here they are.
I received my textbook just in time. Nothing between the pages were damaged or altered or marked
You keep interrupting me with pop ups offering a "coupon" and when I try to get it, it does not appear...
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.
