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.

Finding the books I wanted at a price I could afford was easy
The search was easy and the selection was very good.
I found what I needed quickly. The price was good and I feel confident about the quality.
This is the only place I found a book I was seeking that was supposedly no longer available.
Your site did not require me to create an account with an ID and password. I already have 50 million accounts and I don't want to keep creating more accounts. I checked other sites and they all required the creation of an account. I selected yours because I could continue as a guest. Thank you.
Alibris is an important – and all too rare – source for specialty books.
Very quick with several options -Did not require stop using my VPN as another vendor I used a lot did.
Not all books had a summary of content. Would prefer that all did so.
Quick access, easy to find, easy to read, easy to order.
You made it easy to buy a book I wanted to give to a young writer.
Had selected these books prior to signing in - but had trouble remembering my password. When I dealt with that, I was unable to access the pre-login cart, and so had to redo the shopping / selection process. Not terrible, but kind of unexpected.
Love your website and I always find what I need/want
You have access to books I can't find elsewhere
Can find most books here at a very reasonable price. Always satisfied.
Would have preferred wee bit more info on individual books.
I don't have much to say about it so far. The ordering process is easy.
It is easy to find books at low prices that are more expensive on ebay and Amazon.
Always a pleasure. Only complaint is that shipping costs considerably more than purchase
Always appreciate how quickly I can place an order
Quick and easy! Thank you for being a site I delight in using!
The web site was reliable and easy to use. Music selection and prices were very good.
Found everything I wanted, and got both free shipping AND $5.00 off!
As always, I found the books I wanted at great prices, and Alibris even advised me on how to get the same books for less shipping!
I love Alibris.com! Shopping here is wonderful, the checkout system is easy, and they have great selection. I don't shop for books online anywhere else!
Always a pleasure shopping on Alibris!
Alibris.com is a an amazing and inexpensive resource for books. I've shopped with them lots of times and I get my books quickly and the used ones are in excellent shape! They serve small bookstores!
I was able to find a used copy of a book I wanted to read.
I love the ease of finding a myriad of used books.
