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.

Real $#*!, tho the shipping is pricey and kind of a turn off (like yo mama)
I dont like the forced email spam the search engine is good product section good
For my first purchase (order #*******) I gave a better review, because I thought it was my misunderstanding of how the discount code works. For this, my second order (order #*******), I tried to enter the code again, thinking it wasn't valid for the first time. But it still doesn't make any difference to my total price! I think I will unsubscribe to the news letter, it seems like a scam to me.
Also, I would like to know please, if I had ordered my two books in the one transaction, would I have saved on the cost of freight? If so, any chance of you treating those two as one, please?
I signed up for a newsletter to get a discount but when I entered it [CODE: THANKYOU] you added 10% tax instead of subtracting a $5 discount! This was frustrating, I thought there was a mistake so, I tried to go back. That was a mistake, I had to reenter my details. Your web site could explain things better. But other than that, it was a pretty good experience.
Easy to use website, I had used before, so was familiar with it.
Had an easy time ordering and paying.
Beats the pants off abebooks: their site didn't work. Yours did and you got the order.
I found what I needed and it was easy to order at a great price.
Low prices and good quality books, found what I have been searching for :)
Clear and user friendly order form. Liked the opening screen that noted previous order had been placed as a guest and not with a user account.
Up to this point, very good- easy and clear.
Will rate seller upon reception of this important book.
Thank you
Well, I haven't received the product yet but the ordering seemed pretty straight forward.
Always has fair prices and all the books I need for my education.
Good experience. Would love to see shipping with each item added (not last thing before you order).
Lots of used books in good shape and the prices are very fair.
I always find what I want here. Very user-friendly site.
I love shopping Alibris --- it's always so wonderful to discover a favorite out of print book!
Been a customer for years. Why cant i get free shipping?
Quickly found several books on topic I was interest.
I love this site -- I can find wonderful bargains, and the shipping isn't bad!
You can almost always find the books or music I am looking for!
No problems, easy to find the book I wanted from a store I like. Check out was quick and frustration free.
Found what I needed quickly and checkout was even faster.
