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.

Great and easy. Every book I have received has been exactly as advertised.
It would help however if you made clear the shipping method used -
Where i live, UPS and Ex deliver to home address - 200 Big Sky
But US mail and usps deliver only to P O Box 7923- so orders were refused by
Post office and returned since they had 200 Big Sky as address. Amybe you could just keep record of both addresses and use what is needed?

Great price! Condition is stated as new… I hope it is actually new when I receive it.
Easy to use Alibris online set up & amazing array of books!
Shopping for my 2 Grandchildren to add to our Graham Oakley Church Mice series - received in our VT home from 1 of yr USA sellers very quickly -my son (their Dad)has read to them & just ordered 1 another UK from to another Church Mice bk from UK seller for a good price & it will be here probably by their next visit according to seller. Alibris site's very easily searched & has lots we will find as they get older.
Good, dank, i like the books, good prices, good stuff
Love the ability to search for books across the country in one spot
Great customer service. I had questions and the seller got back to me with answers the same day.
Found what I wanted for a good price. Quick checkout. Well done!
Easy to find what I was looking for. Also easy to pay for my order.
Purchase made easy, was not forced to 'create an account'. Would have liked an option for fast delivery & a specific delivery date. My friend's birthday is October 6.
It is impossible to get customer service. I needed to change an address 30 seconds after ordering and it is impossible to reach anyone. Had to order a second book because no way to cancel or alter
The collection of options via this website is convenient and provides a great deal of control and choice resulting in the titles and covers I'm looking for. I find it helpful to be able to preview the book covers.
Easy to sign up; easy to find books; easy order process; ability to use PayPal. Great experience so far!
Very easy! Found the book I needed for a great price! Easy pay with PayPal too!
Love Alibris! Sellers generally give honest appraisals of their offerings.
Excellent service. Love shopping with you. Thanks fir your business.
Returns handled immediately only good experiences on several orders
Shipping sorta slow but otherwise fabulous site, etc.
My prior order was cancelled. All of the books now available are in lesser condition and cost more. I think the initial order was a bait and switch, meaning priced much lower than it should have been, and then leaving me to have to choose a lesser quality item when that lowballed order was cancelled. If I didn't need the book I would not shop with you.
Shopping has been simple, straightforward and no problem.
