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.

Layout is neither ugly nor distracting-- nice and clean. Not too much text, which is all legible. Helpful tabs to view different pricing options. No ads or popups on the site. Quick checkout process.
It's very confusing that there is a separate shipping fee for every book, even when several are purchased from the same seller as part of the same order.
Good except for shipping days could be more easily found.
Easy to find the book I needed at a price that's affordable.
It's so nice to beable to get books much cheaper. But, the postage is high. I know that can't be helped.
I was so happy to find this extraordinary book at such a great price.
I've only placed the order—I haven't received the book yet. But so far it's been easy and convenient.
If this really is a new sealed deck I will be ecstatic. Otherwise, my rating will reflect the bait and switch
The books I needed were easy to find. Check out was quick and easy.
Found book I wanted easily. Do not have another one in book format but that's OK you can't have everything.
However...says if I get on mailing list I got free (or 5.00 off) shipping.I did the sign up and then instead of 5.00 off shipping it says it has to be a 50.00 order. That was not stated prior to signing up. It says.SIGN UP FOR 5.00 OFF SHIPPING.
Never any problems--buy only from five star sellers.
Found items I was looking for easily. Ordering system was flawless
Very easy to find books at cheap and great prices!
Good value for both reading materials and shipping.
Fair price. Great selection. Appropriate shipping charges. Fast. Easy.
Great prices with gouging on shipping fees makes for a win-win choice.
Fantastic! Very reasonable pricing AND shipping for a wide variety of subjects.
Seems I always find the book I'm looking for and can decide which type/condition/price is right for me. Thanks or all that and more.
You had what i was looking for at a reasonable price. Thank you!
Easy to use and thanks for not booting me from your system... It has been quite a while since we crossed paths.
Easy to search for books and I've never had a problem with them once they arrive.
Thank you for your great service and fair pricing.
