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.

Awwweesome! It had nearly every book i looked for. Helping me to find the very cheapest price. So so happy!
Rational presentation of lots of information! But I'd like to know the type size within a book. Once I received a book I'd ordered and it was too small to read with comfort or pleasure.
Competitive prices for new and used goods, well at the same time great on shipping.
My paperback book was in mint condition, with no marks or torn pages. The book arrived far sooner than expected!
Overall, I would purchase future books, if available, from this used book store and would recommend it to others.
Very pleased indeed!
Fairly easy to search and purchase. Have ordered before- have not been disappointed in any thing ordered!
Ease of signing up, ordering, and the convenience of access to booksellers nationwide.
Got my dvd fast, shipped properly and in good condition. No complaints at all!
I got my book delivered on time and i'm good condition. It was comparatively affordable too.
Easy to use, used several times happy with quality of items and timely shipments.
Super easy to order books! It was easy to find the book I need and the system was user friendly.
So easy to shop and my family has enjoyed all the books we have purchased through Alibris! Thank you!
Fast and easy! Very satisfying! Looking forward to receiving this book, as it is a gift for a "little" girl who "doesn't fit on the page!"
THE PLACE for autographed books, unusual editions or great used titles. Quick shipping (expedited if you need it) and a really good fetch service …. Need anything more?
Best quality, great price and free shipping. What more could you want?
It took less than a minute to buy from the site. The price is economical also.
The Web site is very intuitive and user friendly. Easy to navigate.
Always a treat to search for and purchase books, new and used, at Alibris. A rich source of reading material!
The price was lower than I expected and I was surprised how easy it was to order my chosen book.
Great! I can find all of my favorite books using Alibris.com.
I was able to find an updated accounting book. I will be returning to this website to shop for all of my books!
The book i ordered was correct and expedient. It also was in excellent condition- like new!
I think the shipping charges are sometimes inflated. This is why I can't give a 5 star rating.
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.
Answer: Hi Dennis, That depends on where the seller is located and where your deliver address is as well. Generally, shipments within the States are delivered within a week or so, though holiday shipping might slow down a bit. If you send us the details with your order number in an email to [email protected] we can look into the specifics for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: Hi Valerie, If you have had a problem with your Visa or PayPal transactions on our site, please let us know the details at [email protected] so that we can investigate for you. Thank you for your question. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: HI Zoila, Delivery timeframes within the States are usually between 3 and 8 days, but it depends on where the seller is that is shipping the item to you. If you have already placed an order, please contact us at [email protected] with your order details and we can investigate for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: Really Michael, contact you directly? Why should we have to. There is a bad trend here. Seems MANY of us contact you and you DONT respond
Answer: I saw the fake stellar reviews and did not dig deeper. I til... I had an issue. Initially, I wanted to give a small seller some business after COVID and the site looked really good. What a big mistake that was! Shame on this outfit.
