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 always enjoy buying books through Alibris. I have never had a problem with the sellers of used books either. Thank you
GREAT no problems so far. I have ordered books and music.
I like your site and find it fairly easy to use.
Very easy and direct. Found exactly what I needed.
Thanks!
Free shipping option would be appreciated. Perhaps at a certain sum there would be free shipping. If you do have that and I haven't seen it, my apologies. I am looking forward to this cookbook, though!
You guys are the best, I can always find exactly what I need. The quality of the books are always exactly as described, and often exceed expectations.
I enjoy the vast inventory of books and resellers.
Great selection of books and great service.
Your credit card processing could not accept my long home billing street address, which is diff from vacation shipping address.
Not sure after several attempts if it went thru. Email me if it did not.

Delighted you have all three.
I'd like to be able to ship each to a different address. Is that possible now or in the future?
My first experience with purchasing this devotional from your company was Five Star.

Love to support independent book sellers. The experience is a bit outdated though.

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.

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.
