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.

Book name was obviouos. Prices were obvious. Payment was simple and straight forward.
Thank you.
The price for the book was incredibly cheap and the site has no obtuse menus or pages that take too long to load.
Alibris totally disappointed by 'canceling' an order by email rather than checking with me to see if I wanted to make another book selection.
I have always been pleased with my shopping experience at Alibris. An awesome site and sight for lovers of books.
Canceled my item so I had to pay tax and shipping twice to order a replacement
I love Alibris! I have never had an issues receiving anything I have ever ordered. I have used them for several years.
I love Alibris. I find great, sometimes difficult to find, books. I have used their services for years and I have never been disappointed. I recommend them whenever someone is looking for a book.
I wish more information about the books was easily available - things like number of pages, edition, etc. It's not always easy to tell what I'm getting.
Surprisingly easy & expedient ordering. Love that PayPal is an option!
I've ordered many books through Alibris. The books get to me quickly and I'm very pleased with this company.
Quick and easy. I bought many books through Alibris and it has been a good experience.
Haven't used the account in a while but it was easy to get it going again.
Excellent shopping experience! Great selection and prices! Thank you!
Great selection, both soft & hard cover.

Always a pleasure. Good selections at reasonable prices!
Always great deals and great selection!
I need it by Dec.24 and that option to choose disappeared.
This has been really easy and fast. I wanted this book I went to search found it, bought it and the person will mail it to me. Couldn't be any easier.
Always easy to navigate the website and find the books I want.
Too many trackers, and a pain going to cart after saving something fires later
They let me know asap a book wasn't available so I could get another one from a different seller.
Shipping is atrocious. It's double what I paid for in the books!
Finding what I want is easy. Being told a few days later it's not in stock is annoying. Sellers should keep their stock up-to-date.
Wish there were different shipping costs to choose from.
First time on this website. I was looking for only 1 book, but your site was easy enough to navigate and the used book prices cheap enough that I ended up with 6 on the same subject
Good selection of options for the books I was looking for. But no opportunity to include a message to the recipient, or in any way mark this as a gift.
