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.

Easy and fast order process. Shopping site easy to use. Good prices.
Best price compared to all other sites.
Very quick checkout.
Shipping could be lower between $1.99- to $2.99; which would help selecting to buy now; without hesitation. Thanks-

Although I made purchases as Guest; I had been quite a loyal Guest about 5 years, to current time. I think I might continue as Guest for as long as I would be content with the purchases. Thanks.
Good source for finding books in good condition to buy.
I used this site all the time in the past, so glad it's still here!
Alibris is always my first stop when looking for books, or dvds!
I have ordered many books through your service over several years, always with great results!
I have purchased many books through your site and have always been happy with my purchases.
I love the large selection of books and the fabulous prices!
I love this site! I have discontinued ordering books from Amazon. I would much rather buy from Alibris.
Great! Love this site. I no longer use Amazon so this is my go-to for books now. Thank you so much!
I chose the Carolton TX book store and want expedited shipping. Because they are from the same seller... I SHOULD NOT PAY $18 for POSTAGE. I tried contacting Seller... says this order not in this acct? Order #******* Lenn Howard purcheser email *******@yahoo.com
The system held me hostage until I reset a password. The system replaced what was originally in my card and charged me more.
I do like the price and condition of the books i have previously purchased. The cost of shipping is a bit much to swallow but I pay because i trust your website.
The final explanation of the shipping charges was confusing.
Fast, easy, and we always get exactly what we were promised!
I know you want to get payment info before I get the estimate on shipping, but I'm interested in the shipping times/rates early on! And the range 3-14 days is too big for a birthday present this month! Hoping for 8 days.
This is a great bookstore site! I just got VERY disappointed from Janetbooks, so I am glad you were available!
I typed in teen to teen girls and chose one and after I ordered it I got a message saying it was Guys
I was able to find the book that I was looking for and compare by condition and price.
My first order had free shipping. I'm not complaining, but I thought all shipping was free.
Easy, user friendly website, great prices and selection!
Alibris has a well curated selection. And you use the USPS which is essential.
Alibris has such a vast selection it's difficult for a bibliophile to stay away. I've purchased several items and (with one exception) have been satisfied by your prompt service. We don't all have printers though so you might consider offering to mail return labels if possible. Highly recommend. I'll be back soon.
