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.

Disappointed not to see combined shipping option for multiple items from single bookseller
So nice to able to get_real_ books at reasonable prices.
$#*! Amazon. Love alibris.
That shipping is rough though, given my wages
Low purchase price offsets the high shipping cost.
Easy enough to place order. Easy to search for items. Hoping all goes well.
I've always appreciated the ease, functionality, and experience of shopping through Alibris!
I found a book that doesn't seem available in many places. I'm happy that I found a copy on this site.
Found a fairly obscure book quickly with many options
Shopping was ok, easy and fast, but it's anoying to get the shipping cost at the end and also being so much, in order that it could be sent in only one package, reducing the overall cost.
Very easy to navigate the website. I was gratified because I was able to locate an out of print book for my granddaughter. She'll be thrilled!
Your shipping is outrageous. And the promise of free shipping only applies on large orders and specific books (look for shipping icon?) that you want to get rid of. This is likely my last order as the shipping is more than the books!
Great books, great prices and easy site to use and make a purchase.
Would like to be able to search by books and see if one seller has both books. Right now it is difficult- because you have to search both books independently
Initial ad says book sells for 1.22. Then further options don't include that amount. Very confusing
Seller was quick to respond to my questions and site was easy to use.
Nice find at a decent price. Easy checkout process
Quick and easy ordering of a hard to find item
Ali rid is my favorite site to order books. They offer the best prices!
I love shopping with Alibris! I buy most of my books with this shop.
Alibis always has the best price on books! Some books that are difficult to find I have been able to find here and incredible prices.
Had to make multiple attempts today because part of the website was down. I did like the cart optimization option, though
Alibris always comes through with difficult to find books! Thank you
