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.

This shopping and checkout was quick! Rivals the Amazon check out. If they have more books I need I will 100% be back! Now to wait for my item to arrive!
Repeatedly refused my billing address. Did not allow shipping address to be different. Took FOREVER to persuade changes.
Great interface. Easy to navigate and find things.
You have finally gotten all the kinks out I have been using your site for 20 years it was not always so well organized.

It is easy to navigate this site and a pleasant experience.
The website is easy to navigate and offers books at deep discounts for choosing slightly used options
I found a copy I wanted for $4. I started to check out, and you asked me to set up an account, which I did under a different email address that this one. When I tried to continue to by the book, you had not only emptied my cart, you had raised the price of most copies to $13 or more. I have seen this trick happen at ABE books, which is why I stopped buying books from them, but I didn't expect to see this algorithm manipulation/trick at Alibris. I may not buy any more books from you. I haven't made up my mind, but I am not a happy customer at the moment.
Most books I needed were found here, reasonably priced
Great selection of authors, books, prices, and discounts

I am a swimmer heard about this book from a friend at the pool and this was the cheapest book available as I scanned quickly. Looking forward to the read.
Easy to find the book I was looking for at an excellent price, and easy to place the order.

It's easy to find everything that I am wanting to buy.
Things are easy to find and cheaper than on other sites.
I normally use this site to find things for good prices and free shipping, and it has never disappointed me.
No issues so far, the selection process is simple and easy, and depending on what you're looking for, you can find cheap prices that you'll find nowhere else.
Website is easy to navigate and plenty of choices for the out of print books I was searching for.
Pretty good so far, hopefully I'm not getting scammed, just would like some assurance that I won't be.
I had difficulty removing a redundant part of my address. Only one "Pittsford" is needed on my USPS address.
The presentation of the page, how it was sequenced, was new and a bit confusing. When I tried to check out it went right to the last address I had sent to, for billing and shipping. Your page has not done that before. It took me a good bit of hunting and pecking to finally get it right. You may want to take a gander at that. I almost gave up.
