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.

Search function works reasonably well, although it sometimes suggests books that are no longer available.
I was able to find the book I was looking for at a great price! The book arrived in a timely manner and great shape! And it was a first edition!
I love this site! Always have what I'm looking for! I recommend this site to everyone when I hear they're looking for books.
Love Alibris! I have used this site for collegiate and personal needs. Always get what I need for a reasonable price!
Easy to find what I want and easy check out. Shipping, though, seems a tad high.
Order and delivery was fine. The book was not good. What was described as a "Texas humor" book was nothing more than a bunch of tired clichés and general old homilies that everyone is tired of.
The best website ever. I have been a user for many years. AAAAA+
Tried to contact seller but your site wouldn't let me because my email DOESN'T contain my NAME!... This defect should be corrected.
Books arrive in good condition. But I have problems with this review process.
So far it is working well, placed my first order and hopefully things go well.
Absolutely satisfied with this book! The content is excellent, the print is clear, and the cover is sturdier than I expected. I got it for a really great price, much cheaper than on other sites. What impressed me most was the super fast shipping — it arrived in less than two days and was well-packaged with no damage at all. If you're on the fence, I highly recommend grabbing it while the price is still this low!
Quick and easy, had the books I wanted. That's all I wanted to say, and it keeps making me add more characters, oops!
Amazing enjoyed it very much I'm going to order books from you guys every time now
Lots of great books; frustrating that books from one seller are not bundled together for shipping.
Received in a timely manner very pleased with the whole experience
I received my three books in the time estimated. They're all in the condition described on the site.
The books are always good to great quality, excellent prices and I'm never disappointed. After selecting a book about fish, the website offered even more selections that was more what i was looking for.
I had a list of 6 books I've been wanting but they were out of my budget, I found all and all were inexpensive, they arrived about a week after ordering, definitely very happy!
It was quick and easy! And, there is a variety of choices. Additionally, I was looking for that video for years.
Easy to use and buy and search for books thank you again!
Thanks for the low price I appreciate the availability. Good selection
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.
Answer: Hi Dennis, That depends on where the seller is located and where your deliver address is as well. Generally, shipments within the States are delivered within a week or so, though holiday shipping might slow down a bit. If you send us the details with your order number in an email to [email protected] we can look into the specifics for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service

Answer: HI Zoila, Delivery timeframes within the States are usually between 3 and 8 days, but it depends on where the seller is that is shipping the item to you. If you have already placed an order, please contact us at [email protected] with your order details and we can investigate for you. Thank you for writing. Michael B. Alibris Customer Service
Answer: Really Michael, contact you directly? Why should we have to. There is a bad trend here. Seems MANY of us contact you and you DONT respond
Answer: I saw the fake stellar reviews and did not dig deeper. I til... I had an issue. Initially, I wanted to give a small seller some business after COVID and the site looked really good. What a big mistake that was! Shame on this outfit.
