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 somehow was routed to a page where my chosen book was $25 minimum, so had to start over to get to the $1.49 copy — don't know why.
Product page said that expedited shipping available for this item from this seller. On checkout, there was nothing available but the slowest shipping service.
I found something that I have been seeing for more than twenty years.
So you send me a text message, offering a five dollar discount by entering the texted discount code of Alibris: Welcome! Use your exclusive coupon code BKX545 to save up to $5 off your order: https://alibris.attn.tv/l/JlG/ggm_l
But then there's no place to enter the discount. I think it's called bait and switch.
I suppose you now understand why I gave you a one star rating.
Please text me when you ship books *******920 can yiu ship
This immediately? Need my Friday 12/30/22 if possible. Thank you. Happy holidays
Good. Graphics. Quick check
Out. Hope delivery will be quick. Didn't give delivery date! Would have been good
I love this site. You are truly enabling me and my book addiction.
Easy to find books and great coupons available to use. Coupons will keep me coming back to site.
I've used Alibris for several years. Items are very reasonably priced, shipping is equitable, delivery is fast. Plenty of options usually for a given item. Better prices than several other sites.
Slightly confusing. After choosing each of the three books and making sure to click "free shipping" on the left when selecting each book, the total in the cart listed over $11.00 estimated shipping. This didn't make sense and I almost went to another provider. It wasn't until after I clicked on Pay Pal and was looking at the final page to confirm and actually order, did the shipping cost go away and list free shipping.
Would like to filter more for Seller, condition and edition
You should make the shipping charges known up front.
Quick and easy; found what I was looking for; easy checkout
Very happy with the wide selection of used CD's in great condition with this certain album for a great price.
Interface good. Great vendors and choices. And I love free shipping!
Quickly found book I wanted. Info about book's condition available with one click. Easy check out.
Always find what I am looking for. Service is top notch.
It would be nice to know shipping estimate before reaching the end.
I am slow on the computer, forgot my password and had to re do it. Done. I DONT WANT TO AGREE TO HAVING MY FEEDBACK PUBLISHED, SO I CAN'T SUBMIT THIS FORM
