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.

So far it's been easy to find books I want and order i have no idea how the mail process is. I'll wait and see.
I am a bookseller at Alibris. I am signed in as a seller without a problem. But I was unable to sign in with my account (username and password were rejected for no discernible reason) when I tried to check out, so I had to check out as a guest.
It was fast and easy to search and purchase books. Thank you.
Most all i look for i find here reasonably priced it's good experience so far
So far everything was there that I was looking for its a lot for shipping though
Would like to know how many copies are avail up front
Smooth website easy to navigate good shipping cost responsive
I felt suspicions checking out the coupons. No coupons were available, I paid the full price.
I have always found Alibris the best resource for books. They are most reasonably priced and have the books I'm looking for.
Disappointed that there was a "trick minimum" involved with $20 coupon note. Recommend prorating - or being transparent in original email
Fascinating, exotic, deeply interesting, informative, and well written
Hopefully the shipping won't take 8 days... which is the usual experience I have with textbook resellers. I'm giving you a shot. Please impress me!
Found most of the books I needed. Easy to check out and pay.
The shopping experience was fast and easy. Looking forward to receiving the book.
Easy to find what I looked up, the filter options were simple to figure out, and I will use this site again.
Well, so far so good. Will reserve my opinion until I received the book.
I had to jump around quite a bit on your ordering format, which made me a little uncomfortable at first. I hope this ordering process goes well for me and that I receive the items that I actually want. Thank you!
So far you have every book I've needed over the years
There was no provision to use tax exemption and it took far too long with far too much effort, just to save less than a dollar! Further, it would seem that a simple phone call would no only same me time, but would save you time AND money, as well.
A bit confusing to fill in info- difficult to navigate page due to a lot if different addresses popping up.
Since I searched you out many years ago, I have been a faithful customer, recommending you to many, as I appreciate the quality of books and exceptional service. Thank you.
I'm glad Alibris exists so I didn't need to go to Amazon
