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.

Always get the best prices here. Highly recommend this site.
Have shopped before will shop again, can't beat the prices. All books we have received have been in great used condition.
Very good selections, great prices for used soft cover books
Lauren, who responded to my email inquiry regarding the condition of the dust jacket on Geltner's bio of Harry Crews, her written tone of voice is why I'm placing my order with Midtown Scholar Bookstore. Her tone was respectful and professional.
When the book gets to the person it was mailed to I will use your business again!
I'll wait to see if it arrives and then say GOOD JOB!
Very Easy to navigate through your website. I was hoping to contact you by telephone, but I found no contact information. I wanted to know if it were possible to save on shipping if multiple copies of a used book were available to ship at once.
I appreciate the variety of books you have. Lots to look at and think about
By accident i hit wishlist for libraries and
Was confused to find items with different
Prices. Hard time getting out of it
Quick and easy, efficient. However, shipping price seems high — should offer media mail option, which would be less than the $4+ that I was charged.
Fabulous prices, and very quick, easy checkout as a guest - but I will establish an account upon next purchase.
Long-time user of Alibris. Excellent service, excellent source for hard-to-find items at a good price.
Very easy to use and find titles, authors and other searches
Good choices and a variety of sellers gives a choice of price and conditions.
I wish that the shipping cost was lower.
Added: When you ask for my permission to publish feedback on public websites, you don't say if my name will be revealed or anonymous.
Going back and forth from my selection to order. Difficult.
This web site is easy to use
The book I wanted was available in different prices, from low to high; the books I wanted were readily available in the US, even though they are usually sold in the UK. I am very happy with this transaction!
It was easy to find and order my books. The price of the books was excellent. The shipping was more than the books.
I have been looking for this book everywhere. I'm so glad I found it for this price!
Finding what I was looking for was quick and purchasing was quick!
So far so good I'll reserve comments until I receive the merchandise
So far great and looking forward to more acquisition transactions
