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.

Alibris had great supplies/choices for the books I wanted.
I always love to shop for my books at Alibris. They have what I want and ship immediately. I love their service.
Trouble with my credit card and shut down of your system wasted lots of my time. I switched to paypal and no problem. Stupid that it rejected my credit card becasue billing address was wrong. There was nothing wrong with it!
I was happy to see that I could finally get these books that I needed for my collection. This authors' books are so hard to find. It took me awhile to figure out how to order these books. At first, I could not figure out how to put the code in. And your website kept jumping out of my computer. But over are I figured it out.And I will continue to order from this company
No fuss shopping - quick and straightforward, with my details correctly remembered. Unlike another bookseller which defaults me every time to the wrong delivery address.
I haven't bought a text book in a long time and this was so easy and affordable!
When I clicked on the book it brought me to your page. I was offered a $5 discount if I signed up for emails, I did so.
I typed in the book to receive my discount, I was told you didn't have this book, yet I am buying it?
Don't send me emails if you mislead people to sign up for them with the offer of a discount! Isn't that a bait and switch type move?
I have purchased through Alibris several times. I am very pleased with the variety of books available and delivery has been great.
Thank you for having the best price on what I was looking for :)
Some sites save my cart while I navigate and come back; Alibris doesn't. Otherwise a great experience.

Use of Code was described to be $2.00 off total if $20. Total order, which did not occur when entering code
Relatively easy to find. I wish you had a "reference or Price Guide" section that would save me time.
I would like it if the system would update the cart automatically when you can purchase books from the same seller. Its very manual right now.
It is really convenient to do one stop shopping for books.
