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.

The site works smoothly, even for an unskilled user. And I was pleasantly surprised at the bargain price on a classic textbook. RD
Thank you for letting me place an order as a guest!
First time customer.
Found what I was looking for and purchased same.
Very happy with the ease of the purchase and price of the order!
I have had a good experience with Alibris. The quality of the service is on par with Amazon,
The site is very user unfriendly when it comes to purchasing. I had things in my cart, and was called away. Came back and site said there was nothing in my cart. Then i got an email saying there was. When checked, they said nothing there. Etc. Finally i went to site again and had to change password. All in all had it not been a book quite difficult to find, i would have given up. The good thing is that the book was in stock so i was able to purchase it.
There is not enough details about the contents of the books
It was easy to find the book I was looking for with lots of purchasing options
I have never been disappointed on quality of books ordered!
I was unable to create a 2nd shipping address because it wouldn't let me input the proper postal code for the billing address.
Alibris is a wonderful marketplace with a wide assortment
Easy to find a copy of the book in the condition I prefer.
Navigation seems easy but similar titles are grouped too much
Prices advertised on Google were not actual price.
Excellent selection, well designed website, good opportunity to support an independent.
Some hard to books. Your company make finding them easy. An they reasonably priced.
Albris has always provided me with an excellent shopping experience. All of the shippers have been reliable and swift.
Finding the title I was looking for and checking out was simple. I like that PayPal was an option. We shall see how long it takes for the book to arrive, and its condition. I do appreciate the warning of depending on where the book is coming from there might be delays.
Credit card payment confusing. Never had to select card brand before.
Easy to order and find the book I was looking for. They had many different selections.
