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.

I ordered everything from one seller and it said if I did I would get a discount on shipping. I did not!
I used the Alibris Book Fetch function and they found my book in less than 2 weeks. Thank you, Alibris!
I found the books that I wanted. Great selection.
It was good that Alibris did the email to say I had not completed my order yesterday. I put in an updated credit card and made the new order.
Shipping prices went up. Hard to tell which vendors have been used for items already in cart.
Good descriptions, clear process, easy as can be to find and order books.
I chose Alibris because I have had great service in the past.

Exactly what I was looking for and reasonably priced.
I did not see an "edit" option, The title of this book did NOT say Large Print.
I was almost afraid of ordering. There was a Large Print in the section where
I ordered. If I can find a telephone number to call, I will do so in the morning
So that a regular print will not be sent.
Very Easy to shop. I am hoping the book is in good shape. I generally buy new books not used.
Happy to find the book and have it available. Glad you are there.
Love to buy books for gifts... Alibris gives me the best bang for my buck!
Easy, quick, full supply, many options, wide inventory
Thank you for good price and looking forward to speedy delivery.
Acted like there was a sale, and there was no sale. I guess sale only applied to certain sellers.
You are cheating on state sales tax by charging sales tax on the shipping amount in addition to the book price itself.
Very easy to find and purchase books. Will definitely use in the future.
I like what I find but it's hard to shop one seller to reduce shipping.
Had a little trouble with payment but always able to find what I'm looking for.
I try to find DVD`s from same vendors but selections force me to variable and a few that I have bought from I do not like!
As a merchant and a buyer I find some of your shipping rates too high!
Alibris has always been reliable - prompt shipping & quality items.
