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.

Very easy to follow with clear directions to purchase. Been a pleasure to do business with you.
It was easy to find the book I wanted at a price I was willing to pay.
Love the variety and better prices. Your website even makes it easier to shop as a guest than most sites.
As is always the case, Alibris comes through with one of my odd sources!
Alibris is the BEST for my quirky literature needs!
Quick. Efficient. Many choices and values. Excellent.
I was going to spend $36 on five books but the discount doesn't put much of a dent in the freight.
The shipping price is too high. Ithink with all thats going in the world and so many people with work too high on the shipping. I like buyoing books, I don't think I will make with the shipping cost. Looking something cheaper in the cost in shipping to find a bookstore. With this cost I don't think I will meet my goal 1000 books.
Always exceeds my hopes and expectations! Thank you!
Seems fine. Haven't gotten the book yet (just ordered), so we'll see, yeah?
Alibris found a better deal as I was checking out. I love that!
Annoying that coupons never work - they're not really discounts. Too many conditions.
Website easy to use. Previous experiences have been good.
Every time I put something in my cart, I couldn't go back to my search. I had to reenter it. And I was trying to get 4 books all from the same seller.
Easy to find title. Hope there are no markings in book as i could not tell from description.
Great place to buy from a variety of local sellers all over the world
New to the site. Is there a way for me to sell my old books as well?
Postage is keeping me from buying more. Too bad you are not shipping from a central warehouse; I understand why not.
Quick notification of unavailability with direct link to order alternative. Receipt did NOT show where I ordered the first one from, so am guessing.
My experience with Alibris has always been good. Never gotten a bad book and they go out of the way to make sure the sellers are legit.
Website, and coupon codes from email, straightforward and easy to use.
