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 experience. Updated my credit card info quickly and easily. Not all credit card companies do that, some are quite tedious. You're not. Congrats!
Great selections and some of the best pricing for out of print and used books
Website functioned great. No glitches. Easy to navigate. Appreciate that!
I have never been disappointed with this company. Books arrived in a timely manner and in condition described. Thank you Alibris!
Sending this Bible to a friend and your site had the best deal.
I can always find a copy of a book. I can not find any ware else.
Been an occasional customer for many years. Always satisfied!
Good and easy to order. Thanks for making it easy!
Speedy search results with super efficient checkout.
Hard to add more than one book, there wasn't a continue shopping button after viewing my cart. Would be nice to shop from one seller and get discounted shipping.
I love you guys, packaging could use a little work.
Your web site is easy to use and I like being able to easily compare different options for books, new, used, electronic. Thank you!
It has been good so far hopefully the book gets here and every goes well.
Found information easily
Will recommend to my friends
Thank you
Hopefully, my order will arrive within the time frame noted. Thanks you
After I chose the one book, I wanted to continue shopping for another, Twice Shy by Sarah Hogle, but could not shop more. Disappointing.
I was very impressed on how fast the order went through
When I clicked on the item, I checked the ISBN number. But when I went to pay, there was a different ISBN number, so I hope I'm getting the right edition.
Answer: Let's just say, they advertise falsely. They misrepresent what they are selling. Buyer beware.

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.
