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.

The website said save $5 off when you sign up - it did not say $5 off $50. Little misleading... i placed my order anyways..
So far so good!
I am hoping it all works out well as the complete set bought years ago at Costco produced by Lionstar is missing season 4 of 9 seasons.
Hoping for good results!
I was surprised to see that my earlier order of the same book was cancelled. But finding a replacement was easy.
Very helpful. Shipping too dear! Costs more than books!
Every time I try to use Alibris to purchase books, i can expect to have sellers complete a sale and then cancel a day or two later. Invariably, I find that I cannot find another copy of the book listed for the same or a lower price. This leads me to believe that some kind of algorithmic trickery is being played - sellers see that they *could* have charged more and so cancel the sale and relist later.
New to shopping here so had to work through unfamiliar directions. Will be easier next time.
Appreciate having PayPal available for convenient and fast checkout. Also have found the best price here several times, so I will continue to shop here for sure. Thanks!
Website is quick and descriptions and synopsis are easy to see
Fast and easy. Easy site to use and thank you for THAT
Good book at a decent price. Waiting to see the condition.
I love music so much and some things are not available in stores anymore, especially enjoy the voice of Lisbeth Scott and it was so easy to find on your site.
Easy to access; easy to browse; ethical and simple shopping; rewarding for so many reasons!
Was easy to order Patiently waiting for It to arrive
Had what I was looking for. Great price, shipped pronto - first class operation!
Easy search. Some great prices. Buy from independents vs Amazon
Thank you for saving $9.00. You have classics not carried by my local library.
Took several tries to place the order as the website kept switching expiration date on credit card
Couldn't order on android phone or tablet. Finally able to place order on PC.
The only thing I don't like is that the shipping address defaults to most recent instead of a primary address. This has caused me a lot of problems and seems easy enough for you to solve. But I know to watch out for it now at least.
Easy to find what I wanted and great price! Thank you!
