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.

I had to retype my information. Thus, the editing function was unclear.
When I typed save & continue, the page had cleared ALL my information.
Shipping takes long. Should lower first time use coupon code. Should not be $50+
They have rare books and they correspond with you regularly.
Difficult to see what shipping I was being charged for. Check out was clunky.
Addall got its name by adding and displaying price with shipping in the search results. It's understandable, but disappointing.
The Alibris website is always a breeze to cruise through. No hidden 'add on' traps like other book selling outlets. Straight forward and simple buying without the complications! Alibris is my number one book buying marketplace. I've been to the rest, Alibris is the best!

Very easy to order. Not confusing at all like other online book websites.
Quickly found what I was looking for; easy checkout.
I love this site. I've always received good quality books.
Easy to find books, website is clear and well organized
Very easy to order. Good price and reasonable shipping.
L am very excited to once again have the Bible in 26 translations. L gave my other to my daughter. Lt has been a few years to get another. Thank you for your prompt service.
Love this site, very reasonable and great quality.
Love this site, so easy and inexpensive
Why can't I keep more than one credit card on file? I shouldn't have to enter my information again when I switch from personal to business credit card. I should be able to keep two or more cards on file and simply choose the one I want to use.
The Alibris site went down when I submitted my order. I had to back up two pages and resubmit the order. (I hope it went through only once!)
Was quick and easy to find the book I was looking for, many options as far as condition, price. And 1.49 is sooo much nicer than almost $30.00!
I prefer guest checkout and being forced to create an account
Except for the password and registered customer confusion; it was easy and quick and I appreciate your service in the past orders. Thank you
Checkout took a long time, many times reentering the same information perhaps bc i chose a billing address from the box below when the initial one was correct
First book was advertised on Pinterest at $15 ON SALE so I thought, why not check alibris and saved so much, though book is only marked fair, but then I saw another book listed below it that I had not thought of but that will be great for learning saltwater fly fishing. So I got both books for less than the "sale price" that I almost went for. THANK YOU!
Website fairly terrible. Trouble navigating. Feel free to contact me if you're truly interested.
I love finding used copies of lovely books on your site.
I love finding quality used books and you make it easy!
I'm glad you guys ship to Guam. Ebay and other online books stores don't. I don't understand that.
