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.

Pleasant shopping experience. Easy to navigate ordering processing.
This is where I go for all my books. Easy, fast, great bookstores!
I love buying used books and Alibris always makes that easy by having what I need and at great prices.
I live Alibris. I can always find what I want and enjoy having a book that has a bit of history.
When google populates the billing address form I should not have to go back and re-enter all of the debit card info because your form requires that I correct the google state from "New Jersey" to the asinine demand for the two letter code "NJ".
Shopping was fine but discount code did not seem to work.
You made it very easy to purchases this sought after book. Thank you!
First screen said I could choose $6 shipping or $13 if I wanted expedited. Didn't have that option when it came time to pay. Also, the price from GetTextbooks.com was less than what I was charged. This is a super old text so it really shouldn't be that expensive.
Most are great. Sadly some people think hawaii is a not part of the USA. Over all shipping experience is good..
Overall, it was good. The free shipping and savings calculator seemed to have glitches, but no complaints. Great website.
So far, so good. It was simple and easy and the prices were the cheapest I'd found.
First time used this service. Have no way to characterize it.
I've used Alibris several time over the past year. The books are as described, generally good quality, and the sellers I've used are fast & reliable. This is a great way to get used books into other hands.
I like the extensive inventory available, the quality of the books I've received (even the used ones) and the reliable shipping. Patronizing independent book sellers and Goodwills is another plus!
I like the way security is shown when I place an order and the website is easy to navigate.
I hate being asked for reviews after every trip to the grocery store, drug store, shipping company, department store and every single online site. Other than that, it couldn't be easier.
I have found rare or out of print books and I get them quick.
Easy to find what I'm looking for, and great prices!
This was one of the easiest online purchases. They should all be this organized.
My shopping experience has always been exceptional.
I always find my topics of interest that are really well priced.
Good experience so far keep up the good work. Pleasure doing business with you.
