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.

I like Alibris' search function structure - makes it easy to find what I'm looking for and pinpoint the copy I want.
1st time order, a little surprised by the shipping costs.
I really find it good, though I wish I had an option to compare if books in my cart were being sold by the same retailer for a lower price total instead of needing to go hunt and check
All very good EXCET a change of my eMail already on file to NEW eMail as reflected in this guest order. New eMail is *******@icloud.com
Quick easy to find titles with sufficient details regarding condition of books and availability.
A place I didn't expect to find some good country music
Found what I wanted and ordered it, all in a few minutes.
I won't use Amazon, and you always have the books I want.
Reasonably priced books and shipping to Canada isn't a complete cash grab like some sites.
Found the book i wanted and has paypal option
Easy to find books and shipping not ridiculous.
Fast search engine and many choices from which to choose.
I have shopped with you several times and have always been pleased.
I wanted to check my basket and couldn't see it until the end of the transaction. It would be nice to have the icon be available.
I've bought from here before and have found it to be excellent.
Efficient online system. Looking forward to receiving the book.
I love everything about Alibris except that it is now owned by Amazon. I strongly dislike that bit.
I have purchased many times and always been pleased.
Clean up the first time shopping cart user page to show a create account button.
You folks had a very old shipping address on file it was necessary for me to put in the new addres four times
Good Easy to navigate. Had some trouble with wish list. Finding it but found it at the bottom.
Had a hard time deleteing the number of books in my cart. Had to go to the very end. I didn't want 4 copies of the same book.
By far, Alibris is the best and easiest site to navigate!
