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.

Very positive experience with Alibris for over 2 years!
It was easy to navigate and there were great prices
Very happy except had to reset password. Hope print of book not to small as gift for someone with bad eyesight.
Glad to find book but wish could have just paid difference now I have two sales charged to my Card while waiting for a refund
You had what I was looking for at a great price. Painless data entry.
I find what I'm looking for. It doesn't cost much.
I know the media mail rates. You're overcharging.
Alibris has an excellent search system, reliable info from sellers, and the checkout process is very simple.
I have never heard of Alibris, so wanted to give it a chance, as the prices are much less expensive! :)
I have been glad to find books for which I have been looking. The only dilemma is that the shipping/handling fee is expensive compared with other sellers.
They have books others ban its not okay to suppress anything
Again, the best price (vs abe books), so far so good
Very easy to shop, and I found what I was looking for.
I found it easy to place the order. Not a fan of the shipping prices (seemed a bit high, especially for consolidated orders), but otherwise had a good experience.
Sielwolf needs to stay on top. Magnum force is a great hit. My favorite. Rock on
Alibris allows me to find quality used books from sellers. I appreciate their service and their wide selection - which has included anything from out of print 80-year-old books to brand new, mint condition, books recently published.
Easily searched for the book I wanted, several price. Quality options, easy ck out.
It was easy and a great price. I forget to put my discount code in though.
Great prices. Exceptional selections. Easy ordering process.
I don't understand why sales tax is added to the cost of shipping. Must I pay tax on that plus the purchase price?
The ordr had to be entered twice because when I logged in I lost the ordere. I initially wantd four books but by the time I was able to log on and redo the order I forgot what one of the books was.
