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 been pleased with the ALIBRIS Experience since my 1st purchase. Articles/Items of most categories I look for can generally be found on the Alibris site.

So far, the ordering process has been easy. Found the books I wanted and ordered without issue. Now, let's see how shipping/receiving goes.
Found the book I wanted and it was an easy check out.
Easy to use site, no stupid pop ups to join email list or whatever.
Thank you. I am studying Gustav Wagner. Was he an inspiration to name the Wagner Group? More logical than the maestro by the name Wagner.
Had the book I was looking for, best price I could find online. Better price than Amazon.
Our bank declared that my accounts were hacked, cancelled them, opened new accounts for both of us. My new debit card printed font causes the digit 6 to look like an 8. I mistyped the expiration date as a year 28. The correct year is 26. I have re-entered the PIN as requested and apparently the purchase has been completed with success!
Please discard Profile Enhancement using Gravatar and WordPress conglomerate for enhancing Customer Profile. My computers content is jeopardized. I am going to unDO that link which is going to take concentrated time from my day because of a bad privacy choice for me and for you! Before 2020 aLibris provided transparent good customer support. New can be bright and simple!

I hate being asked to write on these forms. Five stars should be enough.
I found the books I wanted very quickly. The check out process was very east as well.
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.
