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.

Easy purchase--great condition-excellent experience
It was easy to find the book and move to the check out process.
My books arrived in a timely manner and were in good condition! The books themselves were cheap, but the sipping was outrageous. I only paid $8 and some change for the books themselves but the shipping charges were $15! All and all not a bad price for a complete series. They all came from different sellers so maybe if its just one seller it will only be $4.99? Still better than other online competitor's for my money. I will be using Alibris again!
So easy and so economical. I love this website... I can find everything I need here.
Order was as expected. In this economy appears to be a slightly misprinted edition and has some hand written notes which is cool.
So far very easy to purchase the book since alibris already had my contact and purchase information.
Easy and clear to use bookfinder.com which led me to alibris
Alibris is a great place to look for and buy books. If you have a "Im looking for a book about" search to do, this store cant be beat. Always give you choices and descriptions so you get the books your looking for right in your home. I have bought many books here and will again for sure.
I purchased a reference book that said used. When I got it, it was like new. Great price and I received it very quickly. I like buying through this company because books are easy to find and you can choose what condition and price fits my budget. Thanks for a great book and a great find.
It would be nice if I could combine books into one order from the same shipper to save little on shipping. This would mean I would buy more books. 2 books shipped from Alibris wanted to charge separate shipping on each? So I only bought one
The book had lots of pencil notes. Makes it hard to read. I would have chosen another seller had I known this.
Very quick and easy to use. I like the fact that the transaction is shown in my home currency without any conversion necessary.
I was planning on buying 16 videos, but the $90.00 shipping fees made me put most of them back.
Ineeded a replaceent fora book I had previously purchased and fortunately I was able to find it. I am collaborating with a reseacher at Israel Technion University on one of their projects.
HARD TO FIND BOOK, WAS AVAILABLE THROUGH ALIBRIS. I hsd previously purchased this book and my copy disappeared so I needed a replacement for reference. Too bad the book has not been reeased with updates.
Difficulty changing my credit card information to a different card (tried three different options, to no avail) left me scratching my head. But I managed to resolve the issue and place my order. All is now well.
Love your website. My go-to used book source. Always ordering from you.
I've always had a good experience shopping here. Great prices & when items a dinged-up, they always say so. Everything I've gotten here meets the discription. Thumbs Up! đź‘Ť
I always seem to get my orders fast, and more importantly, they always seem to be in the condition described. Haven't had any problems so far.
I love how easy it is to find lots of options for the books I want.
I appreciate the wide variety of options for different titles.
If you are inquiring about: Indoor Kitchen Gardening: Turn Your Home Into a Year-Round Vegetable Garden-Microgreens-Sprouts-Herbs, yes, all is good. I suggest listing the book title when inquiring. This is the first I have received from your company.
Weird. Paypal was showing the total of order was the cost of the book: $5.75 NOT including tax and S&H. I went back to double check the order, as you are showing it to be $11.24. What happened?
I enjoy shopping at Alibris. Wow, shipping cost has shot up!
Great website--you made it very very easy!
Thank you, I'll be back!
Multiple books all arrived well packed and in varying degrees of time. The condition of one was disappointing, but otherwise a good expeience.
