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 selection was great... I especially loved the option to buy new or used... and to combine shipping
It should be easier to search by seller - i tried to add a few more items from the seller i chose to make the postage more worth it, but it took about 25 clicks to get there!
I love Alibris.com. I have shopped here for many years.
I always find what I am looking for on Alibris.

I have shopped at Alibris for years. If I have a specific book or author I'm looking for; I shop here. I always get books in the condition described and in a timely manner. I always get a response from the seller if queried. I'm always amazed at the low prices.
Love shopping here. Very rare to not find what I'm looking for!
Love using alibris rare not to find what I'm looking for.
Alibris.com is a great resource for books, new and old!
I love Alibris and am so happy I came across this site randomly one day while searching for a book. It's now my go-to for all of my book shopping as they always have some version of what I'm looking for.
I always find what I'm looking for at Alibris at very competitive prices. The website is easy to navigate, and I always have lots of seller options.
You always have at least one copy of every book I have searched for.
Nice books with good prices, but shipping is really high.
Always easy to use and always knows my history. Thanks.
Found exactly what I was looking for, added it to cart, bought it. Done deal!
Your dumb website does not work. There was an itemize cancellation notice (why are you not on top of this in the first place)? I clicked the link to find another copy in my cart and that did not work. Poor attention to detail. Seems like we're finally through COVID, yet many still want to continue to rely on the excuse to do their job poorly.
I always prefer ordering to Goodwill and anxiously await delivery of this book. Thanks!
I am well pleased with the books I have acquired through Alibris.
Don't always find what I am looking for, but the process and care is excellent
Improve your search engine, we have to search for the exact book name in order to fetch the book
Great site! Some confusion about free shipping - had to enter credit card info before shipping costs disappeared.
Crazy good deals and extremely helpful shipping options.
Very convenient. Now let's see how long until I receive it...
Easy to navigate site and the price was attractive
Checking out was a bit challenging. Still got it to work!
Somehow the book I ordered wasn't in stock - it didn't tell me this till hours later. Kind of annoying
Great prices, good service, great website. Thank you
