Alibris Reviews Summary
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.

Always a pleasure to use Alibris for hard to find books.
Very difficult to get the free shipping on a multi-book order.
Found what I needed, easy to negotiate website, good price.
You make it so easy to buy books at great prices, thank you!
I found the quilt book I was looking for, and it's in new condition. That's great!
Thank you very much.
Found what I was looking for at a great price thanks
One book from previous order hasn't been shipped but status was set to "shipped". Still waiting shop's response
This is a streamlined transition, which is easy to follow.
Searching and cross checking availability at various bookstores is easy.
I am happy with Alibris. I appreiate the effort of the consolidated shipping based on cost, however, one of my primary criteria for choosing a book store is its location even if it costs a bit more.
Your insistence that I agree to have this posted on a social media site is unfortunate and the ONLY reason I am agreeing is so that you will see this comment. In the future I will not provide my opinion which I thought was for your purposes not advertising.
So far today? So far as long as I have been buying from alibris? As far as today, I don't know until I receive my purchase. But I have buying books from alibris for years and I keep choosing it over other ways of buying books.
So far so good. Will see how long it takes to receive my order.
I am new here so will be able to rate better when i receive my items.
Terrific selection, I've ordered a half dozen books, all in better condition than the descriptions. Happy customer
All books I've ordered arrived in a timely fashion and in a condition acceptable to their descriptions
I enjoy shopping with Alibris, and have never been a bad experience. If there was a problem, the sellers have always made it right.
Have been buying books here for years. I love Alibris.
Three little words: Alibris never fails.
Upon receipt of the book, I will be able to elaborate on my experience.
It was easy to find what I was looking for and I liked that it's listed lowest on up with shipping details.
