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.

Easy to find what I need. Easy to order. Easy to avoid evil Amazon.
I find what I need at a great price, even if shipping is more that the cost of book
Thank you for being so fair with your prices. Just wishing shipping wasn't so high but I understand.
Shopping is comfortable but experience will after getting the book.
Fresh out the gate as any prepared Stallion would be. The race is yet to be finished...
Will express an opinion then... time will be the deciding factor...
Hoping for a quick delivery...
Lower your shipping and handling fee cost is too high. I paid more for this than the books.
Very quick and easy to shop, and extremely fair/low prices!
After checkout information required became confusing
Great selection, good prices and easy check-out.
Good choices. Unable to find psychology books at other places.
I can usually find everything I want from the same little bookstore.
I can find what I need easily most of the time.
Sometimes it isn't easy to find books from the same shipper.
Thank you very much for having this site available love
I am always pleased with the quality of the books that I order
I had trouble because I had to change my password and I kept having to go back screen to screen and it was aggravating
I ordered from here recently and was very satisfied.
I LOVE Alibris! As a Ph. D. professor and researcher, it is a GREAT place to buy reasonably priced resource materials. Thank you!
So far good except for double address (which am unable to remove).
I come to Alibris to look for Bibles and Christian books around now and then. Thank you for your service and will be coming back soon.
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.
