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.

Love how easy it is to search and order what I want.
So easy to find what you are looking for.
Like the option of buying it cheaper.
1. No apparent connection to Bookmine, the local store.
2. pop up ads for some unsolicited discount service
3shipping charge greatly exceeds purchase price, even though I drive to bookstore to pick up order
Found books hard or impossible to locate elsewhere; quick ordering and checkout experience. Good user interface (a rarity itself).
Quick, easy, and very simple to use interface. Loved the experience and I will shop again!
GREAT RESPONSE AND EASY SHOPPING EXPERIENCE - PLEASE DON'T LOSE MY PASSWORD AGAIN - I KEEP A VERY CAREFUL RECORD AND CONTINUALLY HAVE IT REJECTED
STRAIGHT FORWARD - THE USE OF PAYPAL HIGHLY RECOMMENDED AS IT SIMPLIFIES THE PURCHASE AND INCREASES SECURITY -ALIBRIS RESPONSE EXCELLENT
I hope the book arrives as described. Buying was a breeze.
I'm returning customer and it was painful experience to change and set up a new payment method and new address
I place my order on 5/25/23 here it is 6/9/23. The book was release on 6/6/23 still no book, I never order from GreatBooksPrice again
I am pleased with the ease I am able to order from alibris and the prompt response from its vendors.
Your site doesn't suck. I've been using it since college around 2007 or so.
All fine, except I have too many passwords, and would love to save time if I didn't need to have another password!
Shipping went up but understandable. You have the books I need for Bible study. God bless

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. If you have already placed an order, please contact us at [email protected] with your order details and we can investigate for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
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.
