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.

No problem locating the item I needed to buy, but checking out was on the slow side and it took me a minute to see that the line at the top of the box wasn't moving so I pressed it again and saw that it began to process the pymt
My first time with Alibris, easier than Ebay, thanks for taking my order, I met Jose, a fee yrs ago, legend!
First purchase with Alibris. Website competently put together that gave confidence in the integrity of the shopping experience.
Relatively easy to use, and I love the Paypal availability
So far, so good. Am eager to receive the book I ordered to see if the whole process is as good as the ordering process.
Easy website and I usually find what I am looking for.
Very easy to use website. I have used several times and service has always been great.
Clear formatting, clear pathway to determining what's best choice for me, tons of selection & all seems to benefit bookstores round the US and world
Fast and easy. You always have my book club novels. Thanks.
I have never used this service but will hopefully love it!
Easy to follow, quickly got through the process, all questions answered, loved it! Thanks.
So glad that you have the book I want. It's right there in front of me. Terrific
Could not find this book locally through inter-library loan and thought you might have it.
Been a customer for years... Alibris has never let me down.
Thank you!
For some weird reason, the site was very slow in processing payment information!
I received a coupon offer but there was nowhere to put it and the discount was not applied. You should also show SHIPPING COSTS up front so that there is no sticker shock.
I found several music books about cowboy and Western songs/music. I found more than I bought. It's a hard subject to find looking for historical early music to play from the early days of the West and Cowboys. Research brings much more. I've wanted to use them to play early American music while learning guitar skills...
Easy to find books, easy to check out, have had very good experiences in the past
Found the edition of the book I wanted easily and at a fair price.
Love alibris.com - been shopping here for rare, used and out-of-print for years.
Updating my billing address was unclear and troublesome today. Otherwise all is fine.
Books arrive in great condition. And on time!
I can't find better prices for the specific books I want anywhere else!
I love shopping for books I want to keep in my library. Also it helps when I want to keep a book to highlight in.
Quickly found exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!
